AIBU to still be concerned??

Had section 8 weeks ago and been getting a pain access pelvis and right down front of both legs, especially the right. I asked Dr and she said I'm over doing it to slow down, but it's been 8 weeks surely the pain should be easing up by now??

Did anyone else have this??

*not access should read across

I had this for a good 6 months afterwards, usually when I'd been doing too much/getting out of bed awkwardly or walking too fast. Even going to the loo triggered it! Go easy on yourself and remember it's major surgery so need recovery time, but be sure to mention it to the Health visitor too just to keep an eye. If it continues to radiate along your leg and it's severe, you may need some physio, or pop back to the GP for a second opinion.
I still get the odd twinge 2 years later, but this could be nerve endings.
Congratulations on your new baby!

Mine hurt for a long time, it's major surgery. A couple of years later it still hurt sometimes if I was walking up a steep incline for example, usually just on one side, where the end of the scar was. I assume some scar tissue was fused or something. I'm pregnant again now, and had another emergency surgery to my stomach a few months ago (pregnancy followed a few weeks later - oops!) so it's hard to know what's causing all the pain now. Could be anything. 😂

Thanks guys, reassuring know its not just me xx
