?infection ? Haematoma
Posted , 5 users are following.
Day 5 of a &p repair. Following my post yesterday i called drs rooms and spoke with him requesting further strong pain relief. He was surprised i wasnt able to sit at all and that i was still needing reg pain relief. Saw him today & he is querying an infection or internal haematoma. He is unsure why the packing hasn't fallen out yet and attempted to have a look but just the touch of his finger was agony. On antibiotics and back to see him in 3 days to reassess. Anyone have any post op isssues like these?

My dr gave me a further script for tramadol 100mg, oxycodone 10mg, and diclofenac 50mg. I am taking something every 4 hrs to try and make sure im covered. Anything longer than that and even laying hurts.
I had my op at a private hosp in Melbourne, Australia. Dr is a urogynaecologist.
No temperature however i do have a slight smell to the discharge on my pad (sorry if TMI). Im not sure if it's normal to have a bit of a smell from the wound or if its more indicative of an infection. I've started on Keflex anyway so i hope they help soon. Did you have any specific symptoms when you got your infection?
Thanks for your reply gillian
