Pain in the low back area is a reality in 100% of patients after hip, flank liposuction. The absolute 95% cure is time. There is no alternative. In 2 or 3 months your pain will fade and fade and go away. Meanwhile avoid salt (sodium). Salt makes you swell more and swelling causes pain. Of course aspirin and ibuprofen help. Try physical trerapy things such as heat and cold. See which works. Massage usually is comforting. Ultrasonic PT does a little possible but don.t hold your breath. A back support type garment may feel good. We humans are impatient. When there is surgery there is some pain. Low back liposuction causes low back swelling and pain. 95% of the relief comes with time. You cant rush it. Of course the above plus sleeping medication and even occasional narcotic medication can help. Also a Medrol dose pack can add steroid influence and relief if you are really bothered. A great relief is just the fact that it will go away. My Best Dr George Commons
