Has anyone else felt much more pain after the drain was removed?
Hi Draw welcome to the forum.
Im not sure if more pain is normal but I can imagine that not having the drain in will allow any fluid to build up and that can cause pain. However, if you are worried at all I would give the clinic a call and ask them if this is normal they may want to see you and check this out.
