Main Incision Pain
N-Linda replied to victoriatxgirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have the same pain...if I am not wearing a girdle I have to hold my right side becuz even the slight touch of anything bothers that area .., I will be 5 weeks on Wed and it's getting better LITTLE BY LITTLE!!!! I will tell you when mine goes away.. I hope I wake up and the pain is gone!!!! It's not a major pain....just uncomfortable, numbness and tenderness... The pain comes when I bend or try to get up from the recliner -

Main Incision Pain
N-Linda replied to victoriatxgirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am wearing a girdle to help hold it... I can walk ok when I wear it .. If I don't wear it I have to hold my stomach in that area ... I have had this since day 1...the numbness is getting a little better but even at night when I go to bed and the sheets touch that area I quickly put my hand in between.., my dr said to give it time!!! I thought 4 weeks was enough but I guess not -
