DEAR FRIEND I UNDERSTOOD YOUR CONCERN, abdominal hysterectomy OR ANY OTHER ABDOMINAL SURGERY WHERE THERE IS INCISIONS ON ABDOMINAL WALL SO DUE TO THAT YOUR ABDOMINAL MUSCLE MAY BE WEAKENED... PAIN IN LOWER BACK MAY BE DUE TO THE IMBALANCE BETWEEN TWO OPPOSITE SIDE MUSCLES GROUP.... SO HERE THERE SHOULD BE COORDINATION AND BALANCE IN STRENGTH IN EQUAL AMOUNT IN BOTH GROUP OF MUSCLES..... BUT AS YOU SAID DUE TO SURGERY PAIN AND WEAKNESS OF MUSCLES ARE OBVIOUS.... SO YOU MAY HAVE PERSISTENCE OF PAIN.. NOW WE CAN GRADUALLY IMPROVE THE STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE OF BACK MUSCLES BY GRADED PHYSIOTHERAPY EXERCISES... I HOPE YOU SATISFIED WITH THIS ANSWER.... STILL IF ANY QUERY, FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY TIME....
