dVH/RALH Vaginal discomfort during BM

I'll be 3 weeks in 2 days and I just began having a pain inside vagina during/after a BM...It's like a throbbing feeling. Am I alone in this? It feels like someone has kicked me in the business after I leave the bathroom. lol

Hi Samantha
One day behind you...
Nope your def not alone in this... <My BMs are now not painful while going, however afterwards, the pain, pressure and throbbing is awful...

Morning...I'm 3 weeks post op and began having this same issue yesterday followed by brown blood that turned to a small amount of red blood. Talked to a nurse and she gave me the laundry list of what to do (off my feet) and what to look for (soaking a pad an hour, steady stream of blood, etc.)

Very strange symptom!

Around week 3, most of us start feeling restless to be back to normal. Truth is, we are still very early post op! I had the strange pressure/pains/aches in my vagina for a few months post op. A lot has been down to us down there and it takes a while to heal. Take it easy, drink lots of water, take stool softeners, walk as tolerated, and practice patience. This can be a long journey!
