In some cases, pre-existing pain issues such as back pain can amplify the pain you may experience after surgery. To avoid this, be sure to let your doctor know of any conditions you may already be suffering from before you go under the knife. This allows your doctor to craft a better post-op pain management plan. You should also inform your anesthesiologist of any pain medication you may be currently taking.
