Everything had been going nicely since my DaVinci removal on 6/26/ This past Saturday I developed intense pain in the lower abdomen on the right side which extends into right leg. Not sure if it is just a muscle pull (pain intensifies when I try to raise my right leg. No problem on the left side. any thoughts out there?

Thanks much. confused

Sorry to read this, doesn't sound surgery related to me, if that continues, you might want to see your regular doctor to check that out.

Glad the rest of your recovery is going well for you.

Hard to know, but with an undetectable PSA less than a month ago, I wouldn't think it would be too serious. Were you or have you been exercising? Try a little ice and/or heat. If it continues, have it checked out.

I would check with the doc / surgeon.

My surgeon told me that there was major healing going on for months, and in fact at almost four months out I still had some bits of suture popping up through the skin.

A call to the doc would be justified. Could be a lot of things from nothing to something. You might also pinched a nerve.

They do a lot inside you during surgery so it's also possible you're just healing and maybe over did before your body was ready.

Still, error for caution, it's worth at least a phone call.
