Is the nerve pain after abdominoplasty be permanent or will it go?

November 2, 2014
Asked By:Mrswack in Ukiah, CA

After TT I had numbness in the front of my thigh, after that came burning sensation and now I have shooting pains when walking and burning sensations at night which are extremely painful and stop sleep. I am now 6 weeks PO and it seems its not tailing off at all. Is this likely to improve or has my femoral nerve been permenantly damaged? I've been prescribed Co-codamol (30/500) but this doesnt touch it, neither does Liquid morphine. Suggestions to pain relief or likelyhood of full recovery?
