Tummy and back pain

Hi and welcome to the community. I have not had RC, so not really able to help, but I am sure someone with experience will be along to offer some advice. Best wishes.

Sounds more like an infection causing pain, although there can be all sorts of aches & twinges during the healing & recovery process after RC. If there are specific movements that are painful, then try to avoid those. A hot water bottle or heat pad might be soothing. Paracetemol is usually approved for pain relief, but best to check with the hosp - do you have a number to call for advice? Also if the stent is moving around, that can be uncomfortable. I had stents for 6 weeks post RC & was very sore where skin started to heal over the stitches. I used elastoplast to keep the stents in one place & not pull on the skin. Hopefully your consultant will advise. Best wishes.

Thank you so much I will try this i wish you all well kind regards 

Thank you rily i wish you well
