Hey guys. About to be 6 months post op and absolutely thrilled with the results but one question. For some reason at times there is still some tenderness when touched. Normal?

Each patient's recovery has a significant amount of variability. The transient nature of your issues suggest that they are part of the normal postoperative recovery pattern which should improve with time.

You may find there is an occasional pain, tingle, tenderness, even at six months.  If all is is fine, then these symptoms should gradually disappear over time -- but no one can put a specific end date for it.
