rectal pressure following pelvic prolapse surgery

So how do you know this if doctors don't? I am very interested in what you state here.

I had surgery , pelvic floor repair and after almost 5 months I have rectum pressure that will not go away. I am very depressed about this and never really feel good. Some of your post are older and I would like to know how you are now.

Please pm me guest

Yes,,,I felt it immediately! And I'm 7 weeks post op and it's still very painful. I'm now seeing a colorectal doctor for answers. My uro/gyno who did my surgery has no answers for me. He ordered a ct scan and it was normal. I can't sit or lay on my back. The pain is both a burning and shooting pain. Very strange. You aren't alone in your pain. There's got to be some reason to this !

I had a rectal prolapse surgery in may of 2015 the doc went cut happy , I woke up to Mesh attached to my pelvic wall, a cut from my chest to my pelvic to remove scar tissue unneeded and i have a pain in my lower groan that hurts to no need , had test after test cat scan MRI's nothing is showing what is causing this pain that is inside of me . I had three children natural and this pain has put me on my back screaming for over a year . All they want to do is give me now after a year of doctors mobic and topamax for nerve damage . I feel that if i had a knife i could go inside of me right to the area and just cut out the point where the came comes from . IS anyone out there having this same pain and am I alone in this battle cause right now i feel i am loosing my mind ,

Just had same surgery April 27. I was instructed to eat lots of veggies & fruit AND to drink 4 Liters of water a day. I'm on stool softeners. Before I had surgery, I couldn't have a bowel movement, something was stopping it from coming.I had to remove the poop myself! Horrible! Wear latex gloves

Get a coccoyx pillow it is cut out were the tail bone is .helps alot especially if you sit at work all day it causes this pain . I had a hemorrhoid removed inside and out and recotocele repair had tail bone pain every since.

I had anterior cystocoele repair, posterior rectocoele repair and a hernia repair above where my uterus used to be almost two weeks ago- December 2020. I had muscle spasms in my coccyx area for a week after surgery due to sitting on my coccyx for an hour and a half during surgery. I sat on a heating pad on and off. My husband messaged my coccyx area twice a day. I took two magnesium tablets, B complex and ate a third of a banana after breakfast. I took two magnesium tabs, calcium tab, Vitamin D3 capsule and Vitamin K2 capsule with a third of a banana after lunch. I took two magnesium tabs, a multi-vitamin and the rest of the banana after dinner. I took a tablespoon full of my husband’s Sorbitol Solution twice a day for constipation. Prescription only. It helped after four days. Now no problems. Think high fiber foods for every meal. I have an appointment with a Pelvic floor physical therapist which I hope helps long term. I use the estrogen cream as prescribed so the tissues get stronger down there so I don’t have to go through this again. Let’s pray for each other to get healthy.
