I am 4 weeks post op for robotic assisted total hysterectomy including Ovaries. I have been feeling pretty good overall since surgery. The last few days though I have had terrible back pain body pain everywhere and very bad headaches. I tolerate pain pretty well and only used pain meds (other than ibuprofen) for 48 hours following surgery. I have been walking about a mile a day for the last week. Am I doing too much? Is the back and body pain normal? I feel awful the last few days but keep pushing thru Today I have a lot of abdominal pain as well.
Hello, I have studied your case. Do not over exert yourself. Some time post surgery pain can be there. Medication like methylcobalamin and analgesic will reduce pain; you can take them consulting your treating doctor. Start your physical therapy through physiotherapist for further guidance. You may take TENS, or ultrasound which is helpful in your case. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. If you find this answer helpful do not hesitate to rate this answer at end of discussion. Take care.
