[|Human|] I has a laproscopy to have my appendix removed on the 6th. And I am currentlt still in so much pain in my abdominal area as well as swelling and pain in my left foot. I can barely move. I have already taken all my medication and followed doctors orders, but i dont think i shd be in this much pain still. Should I?
[|AI|]  HI. Thanks for an elucidated history. The probable reason for your problems are 1 > Swelling and pain in the left foot can be due to deep vein thrombosis, a known complication of laparoscopic surgery. Get color Doppler Examination done to ascertain the cause and get treated accordingly. Till then keep the left foot and leg elevated above the heart level in lying down position. 2 > The pain in abdomen after appendectomy can be due to development of an abscess, mass or peritonitis. This can be best diagnosed a by a preliminary CT scan to find the cause and be treated either by medicines or surgery if indicated.
