Hi all,
This is my first post, so first and foremost I'm glad I found a community of patients such as myself. I'm 18 years old (17 at the time of surgery) and we're nearing a July 5 anniversary of my surgery for Kyphosis. I had an awesome doctor here in Texas, but as I still recover I would like to see if any of you guys could shed some light on what I've been feeling since about October. My back feels hot when I lay down, sit in the car, sit in any piece of furniture with a lumbar support, and it is really starting to worry me. The best way to describe it is that when I'm in the car it feels like I have heated seats on (which I don't have). I told my surgeon about this and he prescribed some PT for me. When I exercise, whether it be going to the gym or swimming, I do get a little relief, but not for long. As I said earlier, I'm 18, it's time to move on and enjoy college. I got the surgery so I can put it on the back burner. Any insight would be great.

EDIT: I failed to mention that I had this burning sensation a little before the surgery.
