So I’m one week post op. Just had my appointment yesterday and everything was looking good. Last night I developed a stabbing pain on my left side when I move. Thought maybe gas pain. Took some gas x went to bed. Well this morning I’m still in pain when I move or press on side. Not running fever. Think I just pulled something? Not likely to be a leak right?

Please call your surgeon's office and talk to them. Good luck!

Yes, I’m waiting for them to open. Thank you.

probably muscular - but I'm glad you're calling your surgeon.

Hi .I am day 6 post up. I experienced the pain on my right side last night . I mean I was thinking I am going to be paralysed. I had pain totall my right side and my side wound . I went to clinic they check every thing. They prescribed diclofenac .As long as you are doing good with your food metabolism and urination it isn't any worry about leakage

I had similar happen post op. I can’t think of the name of it but it was where a pocket developed and did not fill up with blood as it should. It was where tissue had been removed.

I was actually on the floor crying in pain. Surgeon on call said he would meet me in the er if I wanted but lancing the area would be excruciating. Instead I was instructed to use warm compresses. This helped me immensely.

Do check with your surgeon to be safe.

FYI- what I had was called a seroma

I have that same pain today and am also waiting for a call back from the surgeon. I know that I had an abscess when I left the hospital, so it might be that. Looking forward to what you find out!
