I am 3 weeks post op after a total abdominal hysterectomy. (Uterus, ovaries, cervix, tubes). I am feeling very good except for a sharp pain in my right lower abdomen. It becomes very painful if I am on my feet for more than 5 minutes. My left side feels fine. Not sure if this is normal recovery or I should see my doctor sooner than my follow up appointment in one week?
Hi.welcome to ChatDoctorits common to have pain as a part of post-operative healing. Take analgesics like tab.attract twice daily along with antacids like tab.panto 40 mg for 5 days. Just take bed rest and nutritious food with 3-4 liters of water. So it's a part of your normal recovery. Consult your doctor for further queries.thank you
