What Causes Abdominal Pain After Partial Hysterectomy?
I had a partial hysterectomy in September of 2014. I have only 1 ovary on my right side. I ad adhesions so severe that my bladder was knicked in the process of a vaginal assisted with laparoscopic and ended up being cut on my csection inscion. In the last couple months I have pain during sex that lasts for days after. This entire week I have had increasing abdominal pain that becomes worse when I eat and wraps around my back but it s on my left side! I m also passing mucus if I bear down to go to bathroom. The pain is severe sometimes and let s up sometimes. It feels better if I put pressure on it and lean forward but as soon as I move it comes back. My son is currently in the hospital for a round of chemo so I am wondering if it is something I can let go for awhile or if I need to try to find time for an appt and if so who do I call? My general physican or OB/Gyn? Thanks! Brooke
Hi! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. From your history, it seems that you might be developing a subacute intestinal obstruction resulting in pain after ingestion of food. Even though it might not be an emergent situation, I would advise you to find time and get it clinically assessed by your operating surgeon to have a proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Till then, you might go for some anti spasmodic along with a proton pump inhibitor drug for a symptomatic relief along with a liquid diet.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
