Incision pain



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, my name is Denise I heard great things about this site. I just joined tonight! I had my surgery on the 17th. This went well. I do have the shoulder pain. The thing that is bothering me the most is one of my incisions are badly bruised and hurting. Idk if this is normal? My dr office is not open until tomorrow so I have just been dealing with it. The incision itself is healing but it felt like it was in fire underneath it. Is this something that happens?? Also have been getting pains in my calfs, im thinking prob because of the lack of nutrients? If anyone has any suggestions lmk. Thanks so much!!

Hi,

Call your doc in the morning. Redness and an incision feeling hot should be looked at.

Are you drinking your Water? Sip sip sip all day long.

It gets better every day. Best wishes.

I had surgery on the 15th and have a huge bruise around the port and all of my incisions hurt, itch and are driving me crazy. Just watch for extreme redness, a little red is normal, yellow or green discharge......otherwise, I was told this is all normal and if you google image the term "lap band incisions" you will se some other people have the bruise

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
