Some discomfort, yes.
No it is not typical to have pain after a colonoscopy.
Pain is not a typical symptom after colonoscopy. My patients feel bloated, distended, and air-filled afterwards. These symptoms typically resolve within 24 hours.
True pain after a scope could be a sign of a complication and should be addressed with your physician.
