Patient's question:
Doctor, my mother had laparoscopic hysterectomy 26 days ago. The wound is healing well, but she still has internal pain. Do you need to take painkillers or anti-inflammatory medication?Doctor's answer:
After the removal of the uterus, twenty-six days later, there is pain inside. If there is no discharge and no fever, no treatment is needed. It will naturally recover over time. After the hysterectomy, there is trauma in the abdominal cavity. The wound may hurt when pulled. The follow-up check-up was normal, indicating that the wound is healing well. Rest well and avoid strenuous exercise. If the pain is severe, you can take pain relievers. The pain from the surgical incision will last for about six months and gradually weaken, so there is no need to worry too much. If the pain is severe, you can use diclofenac sodium suppositories for pain relief.
