Aching and dragging 9 months after prolapse surgery

Posted , 4 users are following.

hi I had posterior and anterior repair surgery and also sacrospinous fixation nearly 10 months ago. At the beginning of the year I seemed to be really getting back to normal but in the last couple of weeks I have had a really achy dragging feeling in my vagina , especially when I exercise or lift. I am so worried that one of the prolapsed has returned or I've done some damage!! Would love to hear from anyone who has had a similar problem as I'm getting very anxious! 

Thankyou! Xx

    I haven't had a similar problem Wizzy but there's only one way to find out to put your mind at rest and that's to see a doctor. If I had those symptoms it's what I would do because it doesn't necessarily mean you have another prolapse, it could be a urine or pelvic infection.

    I haven't had that yet but I need a cystocele and rectocele repair. I pray for a full recovery for you. I will have mine done hopefully this summer at UNC (University of Carolina) .
