It is not very painful, just typical soreness from minor surgery.
Pain is subjective; during surgery you will be under general anesthesia and after surgery most pain should be controlled with non-narcotic pain medication.
You can expect to feel pain after surgery but in my patients I utilize all available pain treatment options in combination to keep the pain controlled and allow patients to continue their non-strenuous daily activities during their recovery. Every case and patient is unique so consultation with your surgeon can give you more specific answers to your individual recovery expectations.
Yes, all Surgeries are painful. Tissues are cut into.
