Surgery means cut: Any surgery performed cuts through various abdominal layers including cutaneous(skin) surface nerves, and sometimes muscles. The uterus was also cut during the procedure making for aching and pain during the healing process normally. Recovery can take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks depending upon what was done. Consult with your surgeon for detailed advice as he/she knows the extent of the surgery.
