She is scheduled for an M...
16 years old and having 2nd lower back surgery

I would see your doc and another doc and possibly a 3rd doc. You may need revision surgery. But if you are having incontinence- you need to do all of that soon! that's a sign of spinal cord impingement. If it gets worse go to your local emergency department and have a neuro and ortho consult while you are there. best of luck!
