Pain Management
I am five days post op from my surgery. My abdomen is really burning around one of my incisions, but there is no discharge. My back is also so sore that I can't do my walking like I want to. It is just too painful. I am taking liquid Tylenol for pain, but that's all. Is there any more I can do for pain & how long does this part of recovery last?

Weren't you given any prescription pain meds? If not I wiould call your Dr and let him know of this pain in your back. I had terrible pain in my back right shoulder. My pain was so bad the Doctor thought the nursing staff might have broken my ribs when they had to use the belt thing to get me off the toilet. Turns out I had gas that got trapped as I couldn't walk at the time. I took Gas-X which helped. Plus I used an electric massager on my back plus used a heating pad and even an ice pack wrapped up in a towel. Good luck I hope you feel better soon.
