Pulling feeling in abdomen after workout? 3.5 months post-op hysterectomy
Hey ladies, I was walking 4 miles a day and had started to do walk - jogs prior to getting pneumonia. Am just back to the gym after 3 weeks off of everything. I jogged last week with no discomfort.
I did a calisthenic work out Sat and noticed pulling sensation roughly where they removed the right ovary starting Sun am when I woke up. I rested yesterday. Today I did a light jog - walk on the treadmill and I feel the pulling again tonite.
Is this normal? How long does it last? Physically I do not feel like I am overdoing things as I have no other symptoms (tiredness, swelling, pain etc.) Thoughts anyone?

Re: Pulling feeling in abdomen after workout? 3.5mths post-op hysterectomy
My doc said that feeling is caused by scar tissue or adhesions, and I should stretch it out. Okay, how do I do,that without causing more? He didn't say anything and walked out. What's with these doctors? So I have been stretching and looking to see a physio therapist.

Re: Pulling feeling in abdomen after workout? 3.5mths post-op hysterectomy
The pulling later turned to an inflammatory pain in the nite. I took Naproxen which seemed to help. I called surgeon next morning to book an appointment, unfortunately no openings until Jan 16. I did light cardio the next day and haven't felt the discomfort/pulling since.
My nurse friend also thinks it is adhesions. She said as you go back to movements you haven't done since surgery you may feel the pulling. Could take awhile to loosen things up. After reading more on adhesions on this site sounds like they are more common in women who have had endometriosis (great - thats the reason I had hyst). They can also cause serious blockages in a few people.
