General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Conditions like postoperative infection must be ruled out. Retained tissue parts act as a focus of infection and give rise to similar symptoms. Continue antibiotics.

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.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
