Port Pain

[beachbum112 0]

Anybody have port pain? I have been working out and painting alot lately and I think I have irritated the area arond my port. I'm taking naprosen and using ice to try and calm it. Looking for input from others that may have had this...

Last summer I strained a muscle close to my port playing volleyball. My surgeon recommended taking motrin (I know, some surgeons say no NSAIDS, but mine says they are fine and I haven't had any trouble with them) and trying to avoid movement that irritates it. It was tricky and annoying, but in about a week the area was feeling better. Thankfully, it hasn't happened again since.

Good luck,
