Similar to TurtBean’s experience. I had surgery back in Oct of last year. No major pain. Some localized abdominal pain under the surgery incisions until about 6-8 weeks out and longer perineal pain. All helped by Ibuprofen or Tylenol. No pain now beyond an occasional pain in the ghost prostate/perineal area for no apparent reason. Asked the doc about that. He said it was normal, as long as it doesn't increase in intensity or frequency. Speedy recovery to you.
