A member asked:

A week after an abdominal hysterectomy, is it common if a patient has bad headaches and other effects?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Timothy Brown answered

No: A week postop you should really be feeling better, not great but better. You should discuss this with your surgeon.
