Postoperative : Postoperative pelvic adhesions (scarring) may cause the symptoms you are experiencing. You should be evaluated by a ob/gyn specialist. They may want to perform an ultrasound and even a diagnostic laparoscopy if warranted to diagnose the exact problem. Once diagnosed they can offer you treatment.

GI, musculoskeletal: When you say complete hysterectomy, i assume you mean that your ovaries were removed as well. The pain may be coming from your intestines, or from a bladder problem/infection, possibly from deep internal muscle stretching; or a hernia. Could also be some adhesions or scar tissue pulling on nerves in the pelvis causing pain.
