Pressure Sensation In Rectum. Had Full Hysterectomy And Bladder Sling. Was On Stool Softeners. What Is Going On?
I had a full hyster and a bladder sling put in. Also a rectal seal. It has been 10 days and I wonder if I should still feel pressure in my rectum. it has gotten better but it hurts to sit to long. I was on stool softeners for 6 days and they made me stay in the bathroom. I stopped taking them and my bowels are moving ok. But I have pressure in my bottom sometimes like I need to go. When I do sometimes its gas but also something else comes out. Kinda slimy. I feel fine other wise. Is that normal or just the last effects of the softener. I have not taken softener in 3 days. Da Vinci was used
