Feeling as if my PM is caught on something

I have had my device since October 2018, when I move a certain way I get the feeling that it is caught or tugging on something.  Any one else ever felt this

Scar healing

by Theknotguy - 2019-05-17 21:51:00

There is some additional healing that goes on for a while after the surface scar heals over.  There also is a chance for some scar tissue to form during the healing process.  Since you aren't moving the arm as much the tissue doesn't get stretched out like it would normally.  There is a chance for the scar tissue to form and keep everything tighter than it normally would be.  

I've had two instances where scar tissue has formed after surgery.  In each case I ended up stretching the surface scar and it felt like I tore something in the wound area.  Painful at the time but within a couple of days everything was OK and I felt better.  I could then stretch out the area because I felt I finally stretched out the scar tissue to the normal limits.  

Based upon your description I feel you've got some underlying scar tissue that hasn't been stretched out to normal limits.  So when you move or stretch in a certain way you pull on that scar tissue.  

I'd give your EP a call and see what he can suggest about fixing your problem.  

I hope everything else is going well for you.  

PM Caught

Your PM is still settling in. It's going to take a good while before you forget its there. There still is limited movement even after a 6 months. As long as its working correctly you will be fine.

I finished 29th in London in 2 hours 20 minutes 30 seconds which is my fastest with or without a device so clearly it didn’t slow me down ! I had no problems apart from some slight chaffing on my scar - more Vaseline next time.
