Post surgery care: Pain and pain management after surgery is challenging as there are many variables impacting pain.

Question 4

how long does it take your body to absorb co2 after surgery?

Hours to days: Referring specifically to laparoscopic surgery, the co2 gas mostly absorbs within hours, but can hang around for 3-5 days. Sometimes we think this is responsible for referred pain to the shoulder. It's not dangerous. Hope this helps!

Question 5

foul smell from  crust in nose after surgery?

Accepted Answer

Infection: Quite possibly this is an infection. You need to see the surgeon right away to get antibiotics and be properly treated.

Question 6

permanent sutures from umbilcal hernia came out of my body on their own 2 years after surgery is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Permanent suture material becomes an irritant to some people's bodies. The suture is essentially "rejected" by the body over time. Typically, the sutures serve as a small source of chronic infection, with a small, continuous amount of whitish drainage until they are ejected from the same skin site where the pus drains. Once the material is ejected the site will finally heal over.

Question 7

after surgery to remove a portion of mini arc bladder sling, when path report shows chronic inflammation and foreign body reaction to material and mesh, will portion not removed likely cause problems?

Accepted Answer

No one knows: Your problem is most regrettable & i sympathize.  It is unfortunate that surgeons have inserted mesh for a variety of abdominal & pelvic problems in a race to outmaneuver mother nature. Long term consequences are coming back to haunt them.  Unfortunately, no one can guess the answer to your question.

my body temp is always 35 to 35.7 celsius rarely goes above 36. should i be concerned? i have an infection after surgery at the moment and i'm concerned about keeping an eye on it as what is to low when that's my normal?

Accepted Answer

: Measuring body temperature can be difficult at times, and a measure body temperature of 35°C can be normal. I would only be concerned if your temperature goes significantly outside of your normal range. If that occurs, contact your doctor. Good luck.
