Question

I had surgery In México in the 7th of January and my back still feels numb is that due to the BBL surgery or is that the cause of the epidural and is that a normal recovery process?

Good afternoon. Thanks for your question. Swelling and numbness is normal, depending on patient's healing process, it can happen for a month or two, it will  get better with time.

This is often due to the swelling and this usually gets better within a few months. Best of luck....
