5 weeks post op pain

[kristamae24 5]

Hello. I am 5 weeks post op. I had been feeling pretty pain free until last night. I started getting pain in my main incision area. My husband and I had intercourse. That's the only different thing I did. Is it normal to be pain free and then it hits you again ?

Are there other symptoms?

According to my discharge directions, the time to contact your surgeon is:

* Uncontrolled or increased abdomen pain.

* New onset of upper back or left shoulder pain.

* Chest pain, rapid heartbeat and/or dizziness.

* Changes to your incision - new pain, swelling, redness, cloudy drainage.

* Shortness of breath or calf pain (possible signs of blood clots).
