I had a normal delivery and opted for epidurial. I had spinal anesthesia as well for a surgery months before delivery. After delivery (2.5 months), I’m facing pain in the spine (a particular area where epidurial was inserted). Any suggestions if this could be a general postpartum pain or something else??

A. Most likely it is post partum body pains but if the pain is particularly on a certain spot and it is giving you severe jolts of pain then consult a neurologist
