11 weeks post- opt today everything is going well but this past 5 days I been feeling stabbing and pinching pain in the pubic area it's very painful it hurts like hell all I want to do is scream the pain come and goes away I may feel it every 20 or 30 minutes for like a minute. I am experiencing extreme sensitivity, burning, shocking feelings throughout my pubic area. I don't know how to calm it. I call my PS they told me it's nothing I can do what I describe is very normal and typically the discomfort will resolve that region is very tender. It's the nerves repairing and becoming accustomed to their new positions. And it's indication that nerves are intact or growing back and When it wakes up you feel that pins and needles tingling sensation. Is there anything I can do to ease these feelings?

Hey nayd just read your update. I was having the same sensation in the same area. My PS told me the same thing. That it is normal and the nerves are readjusting themselves. The pain will not last very long. I think I had it for about a week. There is not a lot that can be done when it happens. I massaged the area, and a mild pain reliever might be helpful.

Hi wonj I'm glad to heard I'm not the only one I never heard anybody complaint about that before so i was like what's going on I try neosporin, tylenol and massage with vitamine E but nothing help. Someone told me to try ibuprofen this morning I did and it's helping the pain it's mild now I hope it stay like this. This pain is no joke. Thank you Wonj :)

Hi Nayd80 no I haven't heard of this! the leg nerve pain yes but not what you are saying down there. Have you tried swimming yet? I went and it was the weirdest feeling. Try to do some swimming and it should give you a good idea where exactly this pain is coming from. The weightless ness make me feel every muscle repair! I feel like I have a ab of a teenager but only when in the water. I hope this may help you! You're rocking those dresses!

I'm already sleeping on my side but I can't wait to sleep on my tummy I don't know when that will happen :( .I'm finally feeling like myself again no more walking bind the pain and swelling come and go but they not bad. I saw my PS last Thursday he said I love your result I told him so do Iol. He start seeing me every 3 weeks so I want to start doing monthly updated. Good luck ladies hang in there and happy healing :)
