C-section pains??

Is anyone else still struggling with pain from having a C-section ?? I had a selective C-section and it took them 40 minutes to do my spinal !! They kept missing and it was absolutely excruciating!! I’m still now having pains and spasms in my back 😭 I had a GP appointment and he said all they could do is give me codeine but I can’t take it since I’m breastfeeding so he said there’s nothing else they can do 😭 I’m having this pain in my back daily I’m constantly using hot waterbottles and taking ibuprofen and paracetamol but I’m TIRED of it, it hurts so bad and often has me in tears. Holding my baby or even changing a nappy becomes impossible because of the strain on my back. I’m also still having a lot of weird sensations and numbness on my lower tummy
