I had a knee replacement 5 wks ago. i'm on tramadol and oxycodone for pain. should i be worried about getting addicted to the medication?

New research is good: Your concern may be helpful. There is a big problem w/ this but new research is hopeful that IF used correctly, post-op use does NOT addict in otherwise emotionally healthy or supported folk. Work w/ your Dr and Therapist to be sure your are a god survivor. The Behavior Tx can target this w/ non-drug help. Best wshes!
