I am 9 weeks post op from a partial hysterectomy. I was doing fine up til 6 weeks then landed back in hospital in severe pain. They ruled out hernia & chalked it up to severe inflamation from the type of sutures that were used on the inside. Meanwhile 3 weeks later i'm still in pain & barely able to leave home. If this is an allergic or rejection type problem with the sutures, what options do I have to alleviate the pain/inflamation until the sutures absorb (the Dr. Said these sutures can take up to 172 days to dissolve)??
