In September of 2014 I had a total removal of my prostate due to cancer. It was done the Devinci method. For the last three months it is really painful tp poop. I thought it would get better with time, but it actually getting much worse. There are days I cannot leave the house because of the pain. Have others had this problem? Is there anything I can do for the pain? I'm wishing I had not had the operation!

Peter, that's not normal at all! See your doctor, ASAP!

Cheers, Doug

Peter, you should not be in pain. Get to Dr ASAP.

Like the other guys said, talk to your doctor. It's not normal for you to be in that sort of pain after four months. Call your surgeon's office. Usually there will be a choice on the phone menu to talk to his/her nurse. That's what you want.

Come back here and tell us what you find out.

Oh, and welcome to the forum.

Are you getting pain in the rear end or are you getting penile pain as you strain to poop? Penile pain can last up to 8 mos. Mind did. Penile Pain is normal. A pain in the rear is not.
