A member asked:

Is surgery to unblock tubes painful?

Dr. Tracy Berg answered

Specializes in General Surgery

Depends/likely: There will be some pain after any and every surgery. However, the post surgery recovery period includes pain management with your surgery team and is usually very good. Okay to ask your surgeon about pain management after this procedure. The benefit of your procedure will be worth this small risk. Be well.
