Post Hysterectomy issues
My wife had a Hysterectomy in Nov, 2007. Since then she has experienced Blood in her stool two or three times a week, numbness in her finger, tingling in her feet, bumps on her breasts, a recurring foul odor from under her breasts (even after bathing and washing them several times a day), and gripping muscle pain with soreness after pain subsides. These symptoms are not on a regular basis, and they don't all happen at the same time. I keep trying to get her to go to the doctors but she keeps saying "it's because of the surgery". I disagree. Is this normal after having this type of surgery, or should we be worried?
Hi,
How are you?
These symptoms do not seem to be a complication of hysterectomy. Tingling numbness can be due to a nerve compression or neuropathy like diabetic polyneuropathy or vitamin B deficiency.
Blood in the stool can be due to an infection or inflammation in the intestines. Further evaluation is necessary.
Muscle pain and soreness can be due to dehydration or generalized weakness. An OTC supplement may help.
Please get her evaluated by a physician at the earliest. Take care!
