Hi,
In view of your recent surgery and your current symptoms it is important to rule out any local infection (where mesh/suturing was placed) or a minor clotting of blood in your legs. Please schedule a follow-up with the surgeon who operated on you.
I am available for any further clarifications you have. Please get back with your age, medical conditions and exact nature of prolapse surgery.
Wish you a speedy recovery,
Best regards,
Dr. Raguram.
