Patient's question:
I want to consult about what to do when it hurts after prostate removal. I had a prostate surgery a few days ago. I stayed in the hospital for a few days. Today, when I came home, I felt severe pain in my prostate. Is it because it wasn't removed completely? What is the reason for the pain? I didn't feel any pain when I was in the hospital.Doctor's answer:
After surgery, this situation may cause pain, which is normal for one or two days. It is best to rest for a few days and avoid strenuous activities. Taking anti-inflammatory medication orally for a few days can help prevent infection. If the pain is severe, it is recommended to take blood-activating medication for treatment. If the pain still persists after about a week, it is necessary to go to the hospital for an ultrasound to check the postoperative recovery situation. For patients with prostatic conditions, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If treatment is not timely, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication treatment and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
