Suggest Medication For Headache And Severe Back Pain

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.
