It has been over three months since my wife's C-section, and she's now experiencing tingling in different places over her body, the same tingling you might get if your leg fell asleep.

First I'd thought.. maybe she has poor circulation, needs to work on cardio, have a more balanced diet, etc., but then I remembered the epidural she'd taken months before. I wonder if the drug can lie dormant in the spine and escape, causing numbness afterward.

Does it hurt after you get an epidural?

For most patients, the only painful part of the epidural procedure is the numbing of the lower back before the epidural is placed, which does cause a momentary stinging or burning sensation. The insertion of the epidural itself is usually felt as just pressure. In the hours and days following delivery, some women experience discomfort in the lower back where the needle was placed, but this is rarely a significant problem.Source: http://www.lifelinetomodernmedicine.com/ArticlePage.aspx?ID=302a85f8-7135-4174-bd4c-2bc4ad7e04c2&LandingID=fc6eb1da-98e4-43c7-bb9f-09c17e2a005d
