I’m two weeks post surgery following laparoscopic total hysterectomy and haven’t really had any discomfort until yesterday evening. I have low abdominal aches, a bit like I need to go to the toilet (I don’t, that side of things is ok) and it almost feels as if things are ‘tightening up’ inside. Has anyone else experienced this? Just wondering if I need to be concerned or if it’s just part of the healing process? Thanks.
Yes i experience this my cns says it’s all normal unless is really server xxx
Hi Florrie,
I had all sorts of aches and pains, but if it got too much I learnt to sit down and rest. After a few weeks I started with 'niggles' across my tummy. As if a spider was running underneath my skin! I knew from having had shingles that this was nerve endings knitting together again. xxx
