Hello,
Complete healing from rectocele require4-6 weeks. The symptoms may be due to healing. Itching is a sign of healing but if you are having considerable pain then the possibility of infection of the stitches needs to be ruled out.

I hope it helps. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
