gastric sleeve and back spasm

I am still having back and abdominal pain after having lap band to gastric sleeve surgery. I have been getting what could be called a spasm pain especially when i sit down. I had 2
cortisone shots and take ibuprofen, but still have pain, has anyone on this forum ever heard of this?

      Please check with your surgeon as soon as you can. People with gastric sleeve surgery usually are not supposed to take NSAIDs, including ibuprofen. We can take Tylenol.
