One day post hysterectomy: Incision ... how long will it hurt?
I am one day post-op. How long can I expect the incision to hurt? I realize I will not be immediately pain free. Thank you! -Jill

Re: Incision ...?
Well, everyone is different, so it's hard to say. I had a TAH, and actually the only time my incision hurt was when the staples were taken out.. Take your pain meds as prescribed and you shouldn't feel too much pain. I would say the first 7 days was the most uncomfortable in terms of feeling like my belly was going to fall to the floor when I walked. Straightening up when walking helped a lot. Good luck.

Re: Incision ...?
I too had a TAH 8 weeks ago today. The stitches that I had dissolved. It's still tender but doesn't stop me. It does take a while and gets better each day All the best!!!!

Re: Incision ...?
I'm on day 9, and my incision still hurts, but not the stabbing, burning pain it was for the first week. One edge of it still really hurts if I get out of bed without being extremely careful.

Re: Incision ...?
Yeah, I've noticed that the right side of my incision has a sharp darting pain depending on how long I've been up and how I get into or out of bed. It stops as soon as I lie down flat. The right side of my incision is more spread out and the left side looks really tight. I had sutures and glue and it looks like the glue is still there 9 days out.

Getting up is hard...definitely a sharp, stabbing pain.

Re: Incision ...?
Weirdly enough my incision never hurt, despite the fact it nearly goes from pubic bone to boobs. I had all internal stitches. Everything else hurt but not the wound. Thank god because if that had started hurting I would have been in trouble.
