Anesthesia

Failed spinal block with hip pain

05/17/2008 10:30PM

Question:

I had an emergency c-section a week ago. They tried for over an hour to get the spinal to work, but I have scoliosis and they were unable to and I was put to sleep. Now I am having really bad pain in my hips and a stiff neck. My hips get so bad that sometimes I am unable to walk. It`s pretty scary. Will this go away on it`s own, or should I seek more medical attention? Please help!
