Brief Answer:
Pain related to surgical after effects
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Madam.
I can certainly understand your concerns.
I have worked through your query in detail.
The pain which your are currently experiencing is directly related to the post-surgical status-Post hysterectomy and Post Cholecystectomy.
The pain could partly relate to inflammation and partly to minor nerve damage of the nerves in the surgical field.
It is important to get a confirmation of this by having a CT abdomen.
Further management is any is largely based on the test results.
Thank you,
