A hysteroscopy with polypectomy is usually straightforward, and some lower back ache during recovery is common. But coldness in your leg together with back pain, eight days after pelvic surgery, needs prompt in-person review to rule out a blood clot or a nerve-related effect from the procedure. This isn't something to treat with a home remedy.
Next Steps
Please go back to your operating gynaecologist today, or the nearest emergency department, since your

Health Tips
Go in immediately if the leg turns pale, swells further, or you feel breathless or suddenly unwell.
