Hello,
After going through your medical details I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that sometime after surgery and spinal anaesthesia pain can persist for few days and will settle down with time and proper medication.
Kindly consult your treating physician for the same.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
