Hysterectomy two weeks ago. All well apart from discomfort when sitting in my bum area. Has anyone experienced this please?

2 weeks is too early to tell. I think it may be just surgical healing. You need at least 6 weeks to feel really well and yourself, depending on age and health. If your pain continues beyond that you might need to look into it further. I think since you described it as discomfort there isn't much to worry about. If it gets severe and limits sitting to 10-15 mins then there us a problem.

I agree. Give it more time. Do NOT lift anything too heavy. You don’t want to agitate your pudendal nerve. Keep us posted.
