Why does stomach pain occur after cervical cancer surgery

Abdominal pain after cervical cancer surgery may be a normal phenomenon, caused by uterine contraction, or may be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease. It is recommended that patients seek medical treatment in time and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1. Physiological factors

1. Normal phenomenon: Pain occurs due to damage to local tissues during surgery. It is generally a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require special treatment. Symptoms can be relieved through massage and other methods;

2. Uterine contraction: After cervical cancer surgery, if the body recovers well and there are no other discomfort symptoms, it means that the wound is healing. At this time, the uterus will gradually return to its normal shape and stimulate the surrounding nerves, resulting in abdominal distension and pain. Usually, there is no need to worry too much, just pay attention to rest more.

2. Pathological factors

1. Pelvic inflammatory disease: If your immunity is relatively low and you do not pay attention to personal hygiene, you are prone to bacterial infection and pelvic inflammatory disease. Repeated stimulation of inflammation will cause a feeling of heaviness and dull pain in the abdomen. You can take drugs such as levofloxacin hydrochloride capsules and amoxicillin capsules for anti-infection treatment under the guidance of a doctor;

2. Intestinal adhesion: If there is intestinal adhesion, the intestinal peristalsis will slow down, and the food cannot be digested and absorbed in time, accumulating in the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms such as abdominal distension and abdominal pain. You can follow the doctor's advice to use drugs such as compound glutamine granules and lactulose oral solution to promote gastrointestinal motility. If necessary, laparotomy can be performed to relieve obstruction.

In addition to the above reasons, it may also be related to rectal tumors. In daily life, we should develop good living habits, maintain a regular work and rest schedule, and avoid overwork.
