I am 5 weeks out form takedown. was just curious if any one is or has experienced a moderate pain in the rear. It almost feels like a muscle soreness. It seems to lessen in pain when I sit. I have been dealing with it for about 3 or 4 weeks. I know some pain is normal but I thought that it would be more in the abdomen. Just thought I would see what everyone thought. Thanks

This could be normal. I would assume that it's not an abscess since the pain tends to lessen when you sit. But you never know. Have you talked with your surgeon about this?

hi there! i get this too and im three months since everything was recconnected . i think its the pouch stretching out as it bbegins to fill up. the pain has lessened for me but unless there's actually something seriously wrong that pain is a good thing. you want your pouch to expand...makes the time between bms alt longer. good luck!
I have asked my doctor about it. He said that it could be muscle soreness just from going to the bathroom. Kelsey your explanation would make sense. It would be nice if it would expand. Thanks
