It’s on my right side to the right of my belly button.
Hopefully it’s just bruising that’s taking a while to heal I did have some biopsies taken.
Has anyone else ever had pain that lasted this long after a colonoscopy?
I think your colon is just feeling sorry for itself after being cleansed with the prep, pumped full of gas and bits taken away (biopsies) it will settle down - you just need to give it time.
