Dr. Alan Steinbach answered

Post op pain: right side of abdomen and back suggests some problem involving nerve and muscle, or kidney, or GI system. If GI and kidney/bladder all working well, perhaps a nerve was damaged and needs time to recover. Coordinate with primary care practitioner and work with Physical therapy on the muscle recovery.
