Spinal fusion!?!
Question: My husband had a spinal fusion operation 9 years ago. Although there have been problems (As you would expect) he still works and enjoys life.
My problem is, the other day I has running my hand down his back and a ridge seems to have developed near the top of the scar. This has never been there before. It is about 2 inches and runs horizontally to the right of his spine. I am really worried, He said he had noticed it and it is very tender but not to worry.
NOT TO WORRY!!!! mmmm whatever.
He won't go to see a doctor as he says he is sick of being poked, proded and ex-rayed. It is pretty solid and got me very concerned.
Anyone got any idea as to what it is or what may have caused it.

No idea what caused it, but he definitely needs to go to the doctor. Try to convince him to go.
