Tip From Surgeon

I had my regular follow-up appointment with my surgeon this morning. At the end of the appointment, she told me that I should not be suprised to feel "twinges" of pain in the scar tissue in another month or so. (I live in the Northeastern USA). She said "November is the month." I asked her why, and she said it had something to do with the weather turning colder. I know everyone here gets upset over new pains or twinges, so I thought I would pass this along to possibly allay anyones' experience with this down the line.
