After Laparoscopy when I cough I get a sharp pain that quickly goes away.

Hi All, I have just had my laparoscopy 4 days ago and am already home. In general i feel fine, but i experience a sharp pain whenever I cough or sneeze. The pain goes away almost immediately and isnt around the area where I have the incisions, slightly lower near the pubic hairline on the right side. Is this normal? Should i be concerned?
I have blood cysts removed from both ovaries, also a D&C. No pain in my body but bloated stomach and swollen feet.
Thanks and Happy new Year everyone.

This is very very normal. It takes about 2-4 weeks to recover from Laparoscopy surgery. Even if it looks healed on the outside the inside has not yet healed. It takes time same with the bloating. The swollen feet as well could be from this but I would keep an eye on that just in case. I am assuming it could from the gas used to open up the pelvic cavity in order for them to do the surgery and see. So it might just be moving around trying to get out. Again very normal. Good luck on your recovery :)
