Rectal pain and urgency after j pouch surgery
I had the 2/3 surgery a month ago today, since then I’ve been having pain in the rectum like pressure, sharp pains especially when there is mucus to pass. It feels like stabbing pain and deep aching. Is this normal? I was thinking it’s probably part of the healing of the join or something but I don’t know. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? I also get urgency with passing mucus too, urgency but if I don’t get there in time then it goes and I can’t pass it until it comes again (I didn’t have pain here before the op)
