Why do I have to lie down for six hours after the epidural anesthesia needle, will my back hurt, and if it hurts, will it be okay?

Lying down for six hours with an epidural is to prevent postoperative headaches, not back pain. After anesthesia, in order to prevent the cerebrospinal fluid in the subarachnoid space from leaking into the epidural space and causing a low intracranial pressure headache, it is necessary to reduce the height of the intracranial cerebrospinal fluid level as much as possible, so it is necessary to lie down for six hours. Back pain varies from person to person, and it is also related to the situation of the puncture point, the technique, the number of punctures, etc. Most of the back pain does not occur. If you have back pain, you can do physical therapy, such as heat. It usually heals on its own. If the pain persists, it is best to go to the hospital to see if there are other reasons, so as not to delay the disease.
