Is It Normal To Have Constant Back Pain Even After Removing Cyst And Left Fallopian Tube?

Hi,
I had laproscopic surgery to remove left fallopian tube and two cyst right and tube. I still have lower back pain it has been two months since surgery. I thought having the cysts out will give me relieve still have sharp and dull pain in my lower back and hip. Is this normal? Will I get better soon can't stand too long or sit or laydown for a long time?
I thought it was because I was lithotomy positon for long time during surgery?

Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Yes, prolonged lithotomy posiiton can cause back pain later.
However, laparoscopic surgery has lesser incidence of post operative back pain, because spinal anesthesia is not given for the same.
Please consult an Orthopedic surgeon.
You might be taught physiotherapy and postural stretching exercises to alleviate back pain.
ALso, mild painkillers might be temporarily taken.
Imaging should be done to rule out any actual lesions - prolapsed disc , disc swelling etc.
Get your calcium and Vitamin D levels checked - deficiency can cause back pain.
Do not delay investigation and treatment for long,
Take care.
