Pain around the incision is common after spinal fusion, especially in the first few days, but severe or debilitating pain should not be ignored. The surgical team should know about her current pain level and assess whether her recovery is progressing normally.

Severe pain in the first few days after spinal fusion can occur due to the surgical incision and tissue healing. However, debilitating or worsening pain should be reviewed by the operating surgeon, especially if associated with fever, wound redness/discharge, new weakness, numbness, or bladder/bowel changes.
