Groin Pain

[Kevin Edwards]

Hi

I have had a RP on June 5th, catheter removed June 19th. On the second
occasion out of the hospital bed, day 2 post op, I had an excruciating pain
in my left groin, can only be described as acid being poured inside!!

Since then I have the same pain after walking for about 10 mins and gettimng
in and out of bed.

Anyone else experienced anything similar??

Hello, Kevin:

Sorry you've had to go through all this.

What you're describing does not sound like anything I experienced. An
excruciating pain two weeks post-op does not seem right. I'd suggest
calling your doc as soon as you can -- if for no other reason than for
peace of mind. Maybe it's nothing, but why take the chance? That's why
docs get the big bucks, right?

And please let us know how it turns out.

All the best,

charlie

Welcome to the newsgroup, Kevin.

I have been here for about six years now and I have never heard of anyone
describing pain like that 20 days post op. I have heard gas pain described
as such, especially in laproscopic patients, but never more than a few days
later.

I would call your uro about it. If induced by walking and getting in and
out of bed, it might just be muscular or a groin pull, but it's still a good
idea to call the uro.

Hi

Thanks for your responses. I think also it is a muscular pain. Have made
appointment with the doctor for Tues morning.
