Soreness In Chest, Rib Cage Pain. Had Triple Bypass. Is This Normal?
Hi, I had a triple by pass 7 weeks ago and I m still in quite a bit of pain. I seem to be fine in the morning but by the afternoon my chest gets very sore. It feels like the rib cage is digging right into me. I tend to rest until I can at least function a bit. Usually every step I take I can feel the scratching in my chest. Also, I m very sensitive to clothing touching my incision. Is this normal? I m getting very frustrated as I thought I d be pretty well back to normal by now but I m far from it. Thank you, Dawn Kirkpatrick e-mail YYYY@YYYY
