I'm with you Lynn. Sounds like they didn't know what was going on.

Subject: "Nerve Entrapment"
Listers,
Over the past couple of weeks, in our facility, there have been two
patients who have been taken back to the OR following a cesarean
section, for "nerve entrapment" in the cesarean incision, causing severe
pain. Maybe it is because I have only been doing this for 19 years, not
counting residency, but I have never heard of this. As a matter of
fact, I think I can say that "nerve entrapment" wouldn't even enter my
differential for severe pain following a cesarean section.
Can someone enlighten me here - has anybody else heard of this. Distant
from any surgery, following scar formation, with significant, persistent
incisional pain, I have considered "nerve entrapment", but not in the
first few days following surgery...
