Post prostatectomy pain

New here first post I'm 5 weeks from my robotic prostatectomy. In the last two weeks I've had some constant pain in my lower abdomen. Trying to manage with Tylenol but not much help. Pain level about a 4. I messaged m Dr office and was told post "mild" pain is expected for 30- 45 days. I'm thinking a level 4 is a bit more than mild. Any one else experience this?

My next appointment is in 7 weeks and I don't want to deal with this much pain for that long. Any ideas?

I'm thinking I give it another week to hit 45 day mark and insist on appointment if pain still persistent.

Feedback would be appreciated.
