3 weeks post op and vaginal pain/pressure?

Hi everyone:

I am just over three weeks post op and I have this wierd vaginal cramping. It feels like I have to "push" almost. Like I have pressure in there. I am still sore at my incision site and I only have a few hours a day of energy and then I am whooped....Does anyone have any experience with this? I did have a three week check up on Friday and the doc said all was going well. I am just scared I guess. I don't want anything to be wrong...I am so happy I found this site. You are all so kind....Thank you again.

I would suggest that you give your doctor a call. I haven't ever heard of the "push" feeling. It could be swelling still but I am sure you will feel better after you check with the doctor.

It's more of a pressure feeling like I have to pee or poop...I will call his office and speak with someone. I just feel silly. Thank you.

I have this feeling. Sometimes its like I have a tampon in at the end of my period? Sorry if gross. Doctor said its just that I am sensitive to the light swelling I have going on. Its worse on days I do more. It is getting less and less for me. Good luck!

Thank you. I also found another older thread that spoke of this as well. The nurse at the office said
it was from swelling up there also. Plus you are right in that I do feel it more when I do too much. I love it here. So happy to have found this site.

I love this site as well. I have found great comfort here!I think its nice to feel "normal". I am glad I could help!

That's how my vaginal swelling feels. It still happens off and on depending on how much I'm up and how much I do. Advil seems to take care of it for me.

Thank you ladies. I feel so much better and yes, comforted to have all of your support. I really feel less alone now. You are all wonderful..<3
