Have a question. Was doing great and healing well. Still have a small amount of vvaginal discharge. However a couple of weeks ago the pain in my tailbone came back. Not bad just annoying. Also not constant. Mostly when i have to have a bowel movement. It seem like it hard to empty my bowels. It feels better after i go. Is this still healing??? has anyone had this issue?

    hi hun

    your still early days..yiur tissues are still healing inside and things are still settling down.

    are you having soft bowel movements and not constipated?

    the best advice if it was me was to go back and see yiur surgeon not gp.

    I've had tvh and anterior repair but no issues st all with my post surgery. only now j have small rectocele which isnt too bad.xx
