I had a small bowel resection 10 days ago, terminal illieum is gone and is healing up well. however, i have had a flare up of my arthritis that is associated with crohns and i have only had one flare like this before. has anyone else ever experienced an arthritis flare after surgery? fingers, elbows, shoulders and knees are so locked up and painful, not sure if this is normal and don't really want to take meds, quite tired of pill popping to be honest!
