Hello,

If there is a shearing force at the surgical site.

Nothing much to worry and no definitive treatment is required either.

As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
