Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I just read your query.

After surgery, the pain might take some time to subside. In some patients, it goes away in one to two weeks. However, in some people, it takes up to four weeks. It is normal, do not worry. However, if you face unbearable pain, then consult your physician immediately. As you have been taking Ayurvedic medicine, you must have been taking some laxatives to avoid constipation. If you are not taking any medicine, then take Triphala Churan (Gaja Pippali, Kali Marich, Shunthi) two teaspoons at bedtime with lukewarm water for 10 days. Do not take anything after taking Triphala Churan. Drink plenty of water. Take more of a fibrous diet to avoid constipation. Do a slow walk daily at least for 30 minutes. Take a sitz bath two times a day. You can take it three times too and take it after passing stool. For a sitz bath, take some lukewarm water in a tub add some betadine liquid in it, and sit for 10 to 15 minutes.

I hope you are satisfied with my answer.
