Plese let me know what the PA says about it
I also was numb on the side of my head left of the incision,
my scalp just feels intense burning pain at random times,
the headahes have also started again
YES!!! I'm having the very same problem. I'm 3 1/2 mo post surgery and the searing pain in the left top and back of head is very uncomfortable. It is not at the incision site. I was completely numb on the left side of my head left of the incision, but have been told it is normal for nerve pain while the nerves regenerate. I have just put a call in to my surgeon's PA to ask more about it because it seems more painful the last 2 wks. It's intensified when I bend my head to pick something up, to look down or even when I squat down the pain worsens and I feel heat in that area. Very uncomfortable.
Hi and welcome to the Chiari forum.
At 3 months post op u may feel all types of symptoms and pains as a result of healing.....many r not aware of how they may have a resurfacing of symptoms at this time...as long as symptoms r not new, or worse than b4 surgery u should be ok......otherwise mention it to ur Dr.
