New pain in lower buttock

Over done it I would think. Some ladies don't even go outside for two or three weeks just so they can rest. Have a few days with feet up.

Hi, Angela:  I'm so glad you are doing so well.  I am one of the unfortunate ones who haven't gone the surgery route yet.  I would like to ask you a question, or anyone who knows.  Did you have a lot of fluid retention, I mean like would you wake up in the morning with at least eight extra fluid pounds on you, and go to the bathroom all day long and just get a little stream out.  I feel like I have a grapefruit inside there and it is very constipating and miserable. I would appreciate your answer...I am getting worried about my kidneys...thank you so much..

You won't have damaged anything angela so please don't worry. 

I would think 95% of women who undergo an anterior and posterior repair will have pain in their left buttock, in fact it was on this forum only yesterday one lady posted that her consultant told her to expect it. I had it following my surgery and we told patients on discharge to expect it. Anti inflammatory medication is the most effective for this type of pain. Your pink discharge is also to be expected, you've had surgery so there's always going to be some residual blood. You'll probably pass more as your sutures start to tighten and drop out. You may see them when they do. I didn't but I think most ladies see them. The pain is extremely common following a sacrospinous fixation. It's the suture causing the pain. You may get some relief walking around because sitting for long periods can be uncomfortable. There's no need to contact your doctor unless you bleed heavily, your discharge becomes offensive or you get a high temperature. Rest by lying down when you can and try not to get constipated.
