Is this an infection after LLetz (TMI)

Really unsure what to do and there actually isn't much online, I had a LLetz procedure over a week ago.

Honestly it went fine if not a little shocked by the whole thing and i went back to normal after it with very minimal cramping, pain or bleeding.

But the last few days ive been feeling quite sickly, and have had quite painful cramps particularly at night, the cramps actually feel similar to trapped wind with a few headaches and just generally feeling unwell.

Im wearing pads every day, at the moment (TMI coming up) its like yellow/brown water coming out and it smells like i dont even know, like meat or something 😰

I have no idea if this is an infection or potentially im coming down with something else and wonder if people could shed some light on their experiences.

I dont want to waste the GPs time by calling them if its normal but also (ridiculously) I cant face someone looking in there just now, it all feels just very tender.

I think that could be an infection and I’d call the GP. I didn’t have anything like that

Everyone will be different, but when i got an infection after a lletz, i was absolutely gushing with bright red blood. Initially it was how you described but then got worse. I took really strong antibiotics for about 2 weeks and it cleared.

I think you should feedback this information to your GP to be on the safe side.

Yes i will absolutely call GP tomorrow if im still feeling like this.

Just feeling generally pretty crappy and stomach pain seems constant but dull.
