Did her anal glands get expressed? You may have to return her to the vet to rule out an abscess.
Yes, it happens. She may have a hard deep pocket that the vet couldn’t express without general anesthesia. If this is the case, it has to be done, listen to your vet.
It’s painful, it is what it is, call your vet and see what he advises.
At 10 she is a senior, so you may not want to get aggressive about treatment, however, there are many treatments available to keep her comfortable.
Give us an update….

This is not veterinary advise; consult your veterinarian.

Ps: See you tube for how to videos, re expressing anal glands.
