Hello!
This sounds like it's the pain from the gas that they pump into you whilst you have the op. I don't know for certain of course but I had mine taken out on Monday and experienced similar pain. It actually helps to walk around (albeit slowly) and drink mint tea, all of this helps dispell the gas and will make you more comfortable. Feel better soon and remember to take it easy!

Hi
Most of the time it's the gas they use to inflate your tummy while they operate.
Moving about helps as does peppermint tea.
It will ease up after a few days normally.

Yes it's very normal... You can expect some pain like this for a few days , it will lesson as you heal.
Use the pain relief they should have sent you home with. You will be sore for a while.
Thée is gas, you have been jiggled about etc etc.
So rest up and look after your self.
But it all gets better
😊
