I am almost one month post op from gastric bypass and been adjusting nicely. However, the last couple days I have been having an annoying pain right right beside my incision site. I'm hoping I am not developing a hernia or an infection. I've had a couple weeks pain free... is this normal? Sent from my SM-S920L using the BariatricPal App

I had my surgery on 4/4/2016. I was 270 and I am down to 245. I am super happy about that. Anyhoo. I am real tall and have always carried my weight well. I have a "bubble butt". My problem... I am only comfortable when I sleep on my back. I have started to develop a sore on the top of my butt crack. Like my butt cheeks are splitting my skin further up. I'm not sure if my nutrition is factored in causing my skin to be weak or what. And my apologies on my blunt explanation... just couldn't think of a polite way to explain my big booty dilemma. How do I fix this? Sent from my SM-S920L using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for the reassurance. I have been using a mild soap and keeping it dry back there. I think I may have scratched too hard or something cause it is getting better. But I'm still gonna see my doctor. And yes google images made me think my butt might fall off!! Thank you for your info. (: Sent from my SM-S920L using the BariatricPal App

I looked up pilonidal cyst online and I hope that is not what I have. Right now it is just effecting my skin but to be on the safe side I will go see my doctor. Sent from my SM-S920L using the BariatricPal App
