Swelling- 5 Wks Post Hysterectomy Posted: 10-22-05 18:06pm
Has anyone had pain-pinching/burning type
when I am walking or standing.I am 5 wks
post abdominal hysterectomy-and my right
hand side-near my hip has this pain and
swelling when I put pressure on my feet.
My abdomen is still slightly swollen from
the op but more so on the right hand
side-doctor says its pockets of fluid
under the scar?Since then the pain is
worse. Surely I should be more mobile now
that walking shouldnt affect me.
Any advice would be grateful.
Thanx.

I am doing ok 5 weeks post op. I am
definitely more comfortable walking than
sitting. I still have burning sensations
on either side of my abdomin but don't
know why. It's mostly after I have been
trying to do some normal things like
cooking but I do nothing strenuous like
vacuuming, etc.

Pain/pinching At Incision Site! Posted: 01-13-06 11:26am
I, too, had this same type of pain. Mine
was on the left side though! My doctor
said it was most likely a pinched nerve.
He gave me a shot of local anesthesia.
That helped a little. I am only 2 1/2
weeks out of a laproscopic supercervical
hysterectomy (uterus only). I am 31. I
am a school teacher, and want this
recovery to be over soon. I miss my
students. I had planned to go back to
school in two weeks, but I have a
terrible, burning, pressure-type cramping
which seems to originate on the left side.
It's deeper than the incision site. It
is very similar to that pressure you have
when you're about 8 months pregnant and
the baby's head is downward. Anyone ever
had that? How long were most of you out
of work?

Well I am 2 weeks out of surgery with a
lsh, and I too am having sever pain and
burning in my right side. I am thinking
that it is because I am right handed so
everything I have done would have been on
my right side. What I don't get is last
thursday and friday I was beginning to
feel normal again. Pain was less and it
states that as soon as you are comfortable
you could prosume normal activities so my
husband and I had sex. Now I am in a ton
of pain but only on the right side.
Please help was I also wrong??

I had a vaginal hysterectomy 3 weeks ago.
I've had pain on my right side and my
lower back. It has been a crippling pain
and usually occurs at night. During the
day I feel quite normal and therefore, I
think I do to much. Tonight, my husband
and I were playing around and he
penetrated me. Did anything happen to you
as a result of intercourse prior to the
six week time? I feel so foolish and i'm
ashamed to tell my doctor. Maybe, i'll
wait until I have some signs that
somethings wrong. What are your thoughts?

Burning Pain Is.... Posted: 10-13-07 16:41pm
My doctor told me it is where he attached
the ligaments that he took off of the
uterus and ovaries etc. Once is all heals
up, we should be fine. Meanwhile, its a
searing sharp burning pain at times,
My total abdominal hysterectomy was seven
days ago.
I hope this helps.

I had a tvh 7 weeks ago and returned to my
teaching job after 7 days. We had a field
trip last week that resulted in several
hours of hiking around the zoo and
now....I am in some serious pain.
Getting back to work was tiring, but this
is crazy!

Your not alone! I had my partial
hysterectomy last November and I'm still
in pain.
My suggestion is to get a CT Scan it will
help your doctor see whats really going
on. Not just one scan do it in 3 month
cycles.
I'm having my tubes removed tomorrow hope
this is the end of sharp piercing pain
I've been having for months!
Take care all...my prayers are with you
all!

I am 5 months post hyst and I still have
some tenderness. It is getting better but
it is a slow process. Mine was an
abdominal full hyst with
salpingo-oopherectomy. I still have some
back pain and some abdominal pain. Sorry
I'm not much help but it is definitely
better than it was at 5weeks, or 8 weeks
even.

Hope your pain goes away soon Aflsh.
My surgery this past friday went well.
My fallopian tubes were swelled to the
size of sausages!
They were finally removed! Thank god!
The pain I'm feeling now is at least
bearable in comparison to the pain I was
feeling 6 months after my parcial
hysterectomy.
I think we'll always have tenderness, it's
the throbbing sharp pains that are really
hard to handle.
