Hello cousinjack,

I hope you don’t mind, one of the moderators asked me to post.

I don’t have an obvious explanation for why you have started to have pain and soreness again. Following a major operation like this, men may start to become progressively more active as the weeks go on and so this may account for some soreness.

I do think it’s worth getting in contact with your team and letting them know what you are experiencing.  Do you have a urology nurse specialist you could speak to? This may not be related to your surgery at all.  But they may want to check you over, or ask you to make an appointment with your GP so that possible causes, such as infection, could be ruled out.

Infection is usually accompanied with other symptoms such as feeling feverish or having a high temperature. But sometimes people may only have pain and feel generally unwell, this may be the case with a urine infection.

Sorry I can’t provide an answer, but I hope this helps.

Take care,

Helen
