Back Spasms Post Op Sleeve Surgery 10 months

[DJTonyG 9]

I have been having uncomfortable Back Spasms quite frequently. I have to take Aleeve to get rid of the pain. Any Ideas what is causing them? I also have to urinate a lot more through out the night when I sleep. I get up at least 4 times a night. Very hard to get a good night sleep.

I’m presuming you recently had your surgery. My back went into spasm on day two post surgery. The doctor said I was holding a lot of tension in my body because of the pain I was experiencing when swallowing especially my medication. Even after the swelling which caused the pain reduced, I was still expecting to have pain when swallowing tablets and this stress caused my back to ache again though not as severely. I had to consciously relax when taking tablets and the back pain disappeared. You may be holding stress in your body too. If it continues, speak to your medical team to be sure all is ok.

Don’t forget you are drinking more now and likely more than you did before hence the more frequent bathroom visits. I always go more often at night because I get very busy at work and don’t go as often as I should so I make up for it at night lol.
