I'm hoping somone has information or insight to post nephrectomy pain. My dad had surgery Nov. 26 They removed spleen and tumor in superior vena cava, so it was a pretty big surgery 6 hours. He is still complaining of pain along incision line like a tight feeling that is driving him crazy. Does anyone know how long until the post op pain goes away? |

Healing takes time
Your dad is about 6 weeks ahead of me, my surgery was 1/10 but I am still having some pain along the incision also. What I have read was 3 to 6 months for recovery so he is just past the 3 month point. I know I aggravated things the other day when I carried in too many groceries so my pain and nausea came back. My wife thinks I'm healing very slowly but I feel I am healing at the rate my body wants to with my complications of CHF and diabetes.
Healing takes time and I wish your dad the best of luck in the process
