Pre-surgery pain coming back post surgery?!?

I had a giant cell tumor removed from the back of my knee/leg. It is 3 weeks post op and I'm still having the same pressure/pain as I did pre-op. Is that normal?!
Answer:
I would think so. I had brain surgery last year to have a a tumor removed and correct something else called a Chiari Malformation and the pain was still there (Not as bad) for up to a year later. It will get better with time!!! I was nervous like you are. Good Luck with your healing process and I hope you feel better!
GO BACK TO SEE YOUR DOCTOR.
You brain thinks you still have the tumor. Amputees "feel" their legs. Don't worry this is part of the recuperation, you will be fine. God Bless!
well id say maybe, dont know for sure, u R suppost to have pain after surgery, even aft some time and the same location (like they removed suttim from there), but id ask the doc and let him kno how const.is ur pain and how bad it is.
i had pain even 4months af.my surgery now im gettin back to my normal self, and yes i had my pain right where i had b4the surgery. but hey check w.ur doc.
good luck hope u feel better.
