Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I just had an abdominal hysterectomy last week due to fibroids and anemia.I have pain in my lower abdomen and in the right inner thigh. The pain is intense when I use the restroom. I am 42 yo and otherwise healthy. I do not have any pain from the incision. Should I contact my doctor or continue taking the pain pills ordered?
It is due to post-operative inflammatory pain. As of now you can use analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like Aeclofenac/Seratiopeptdase for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist better to consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
General & Family Physician
