What Causes Persistent Abdominal Pain After A Tubal Ligation And C-section?

I had my tubes removed about 4 weeks ago with my csection. I still have pain to the point I have to take my pain medicine every now and then. And my stomach i very tender and sensitive to touch. This is my 3rd csection. I m usually back to my normal self by now. Is the pain related to the removal of my tubes?

Hi,

Your history suggests that you have got infection and/or adhesions inside the abdominal cavity. Particularly, tenderness in the abdomen is highly suggestive of some chronic infection. You will need some antibiotics therapy with some adhesiolytic medicines like Chymoral, Placentrex, etc.

Surgery on the tubes may not be responsible for these symptoms; it is the abdominal surgery as a whole which has landed into this complication - Caesarean surgeries for three time is very likely to cause adhesions. Please report to your gynaecologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nishikant Shrotri
