Abdominal Pain After D And C. Prescribed Antibiotics. Had Colon Removed

Hi, I had a D and C 4 days ago and I had two polyps removed, one on the outside of my uterus and one on the inside. I still have a lot of lower abdominal pain , its like a stinging sensation. I went to my local doctor and he prescribed me antibiotics. I m really hoping this works . I am 41 and have 3 children. I had my colon removed 4 years ago due to ulcerative colitis , got a j pouch and a reversal. As you can imagine this is all I need. I play football and am so anxious to get back playing. Thank you, ali

Hello,
Thanks for writing in.

Since you have had D and C done to remove two polyps just 4 days ago, the surgical wound needs tme to heal.
At the same moment you must take your antibiotics and pain killers for some time.
I am sure the wound will heal fast and you can continue playing football.

As for the colectomy 4 years back, its not of much significane in your present situation.

Hope this helps.
