I had a shoulder surgery to remove a fatty mass on my scapula muscle, it is causing lots of pain?

I'm not sure if it is scar tissue but now it has been about 5 years since the surgery and it is hurting constantly

Hi Patty,

I'm really sorry to hear that you're still experiencing pain 5 years after surgery. Please take a look at this chronic pain post from our expert doctor on our chronic pain site. The post is about pain after back surgery, but I think it can be helpful to you and your condition in starting a converstion with your doctor. Goodluck!
