Discomfort after removal of fibroid – is this normal?

Doctor's Answer

Hi, unfortunately I cannot advise via an online platform whether any discomfort post operation is considered “normal and ok”, as there are a host of factors to take into account.

This would include a proper examination, more details of the op and nature of the discomfort – all of which are questions your operating doctor is best placed to answer.

I can, however, advise what I’d do in your shoes. If your discomfort is worrying and persistent, I’d drop a message to the clinic, explaining the situation and requesting for a call back or some advise.

Most doctors are usually happy to reassure patients post-op, as they are familiar with what’s within the realms of “normal” for their patients following the operation; or otherwise, they will get you down for a follow-up appointment a bit sooner, as necessary.

Cheers
