February 25th I had my gallbladder removed lapriscopically and part of sigmoid colon removed via robot.
I was in hospital an extra day or 2 because of pain and bowels taking while to wake up.
About 2 weeks after surgery I felt great and wasn't even taking Tylenol. For last couple weeks though I've been getting intermittent lower left and lower right pains. I was having pain as well for at least a week when urinating. The urinating pain was internal and hurt more as bladder was getting more empty and would stop a couple seconds after not peeing anymore.
For most part now though I'm getting lower left and right pain. Different types of pain too. Mostly feels like diverticulitis (usually not to painful when I've had it in past) but other times feels like a bad soreness in lower left pelvic area. Also still getting the intermittent burning type pains around a couple of the incisions or in between incisions. Couple days ago I took some dulcolax because I wasnt going to bathroom as much. OMG that hurt. Even after that though I was still having the pains mentioned above.
Is this normal? I mentioned it to surgeon week and a half ago shortly after it started and he said it was probably still healing. He didn't examine me though because we had to do a telehealth appointment due to covid-19. When should these pains go away and when should I bring it up again to a Dr?
