Yes: Leg and thigh pain after vaginal surgery could be due to positioning during your procedure. Nerves in the leg can become strained, inflamed, or even damaged if in prolonged flexion of the hip. Cramping after this procedure would be common, particularly if there is any residual mass in the uterus. Anti-inflammatories (like ibuprofen) are a good start until you can see your doctor again.

Electrolyte : It could be recovery phase, drink lot of fluids it could be as simple as dehydration.
