Pressure After Hysterectomy

I am 2 weeks post op from my laparoscopic hysterectomy where my uterus, tubes, and cervix were taken out. My ovaries remained. I am having a constant pressure feeling in my lower abdomen. I’m not in pain but just very uncomfortable. I’ve been moving, nothing strenuous, but I can’t seem to find any relief. I have abided by all the post op recovery rules too. I’m still on stool softener, take Gas X when I feel it is needed and also have used a heating pad. It’s frustrating because it’s been constant for over a week now. My follow up is Tuesday and they want to get an ultrasound but I was wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and any tips, suggestions, or information you have heard about a symptom like this. Thanks!
