New discomfort since prostatectomy

My surgeon has said there is no walking limit after catheter removal with a 10pd lifting restriction for 4 weeks. I will be 4-weeks as of Monday and I have been increasing my walking in the last couple of days to 2- 20 or 25min walks per day on flat ground either around my house of very slow on a treadmill. I am starting to move around more going to stores ect. and I am starting to feel some slight discomfort in my pubic area or when I sit down on the toilet I guess around my rectum. Nothing bad but new has anyone ever experienced this. I have not lifted anything over7pds would be my guess.
Thanks for all previous advice, I guess since Im not working I thinking about the little stuff to much

Perfectly normal, the doctor said no restrictions, assuming you know, that even as a perfectly healthy person with nary a cut on your skin, you wil listen to your body and proceed accordingly. I mean, he didn't say not to walk a marathon, because of course, he didn't have to. Weight restrictions should follow the same course, but over time, knowing the male ego, they put a strict limit on that, as the damage will be more acute. 4 weeks out, come on John…….

John- At four weeks out, I was on my way back to work,wearing a depends,lined with a Tena, that got changed several times a day. I had all kind of pain or weird feelings of discomfort. I made it a point to do what ever it took to anesthetize myself after work or on days off.If I ran out of pain meds, it was Crown Royal on the rocks. In the classic "Griswold Christmas", Sparky asks his dad, how he managed to get through these family holidays every year. Clark senior(played by John Randolph), looked up at Sparky with twinkle in his eye and said "I get a little help from my friend-Jack Daniels". Life is short, have a drink, have a couple of drinks,just wear an extra if you do. Regards Inkhorn

I had perineal pain for months. Kept a doughnut cushion on my desk chair for a long time, had to keep it in the car after they let me have my license back (I was forbidden to drive the first month because of the types of pain meds I was on, it would be an automatic DUI).

Some pain and discomfort is to be expected.

There was a member of a support group I'm in - he had surgery. His wife had a flat on the way home a couple of weeks later. He went to help change the tire. He threw a clot from some internal tissue that had not healed, and died of a heart attack the next day. Now when people are planning surgery, potential car issues are on my list of prep items, with an unseen serious side. Not a joke that I suggest getting a roadside assistance membership, even if just for a year.

Good results are great, and for 4 weeks out, you are doing just that, great.

It sounds like our surgeries were the same date. I am having some similar issues. Part of the problem was the development of some hemorrhoids in the first week after the surgery and they have not subsided yet. I have to work hard to keep myself hydrated so that my bowel movements are easier and not creating more problems.

I am a ski instructor and I returned to skiing this past weekend and I felt some discomfort at times while skiing. But, spending two full days skiing only four weeks out from surgery, I didn't expect things to feel normal.

I'm hoping this will all get better with time. But, I've had others tell me to expect various aches and pains for as long as 4 months after the surgery. The incisions on my abdomen are not completely healed yet, so I don't really expect that my internal parts are fully healed either.
