Blue Pit country 0 Posted January 7, 2012 Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get rid of gas pains? I had my surgery on Tuesday and my gas pains are very servere and baby Milicon drops and adult gas strips are not working. I have also been walking and moving alot trying to help with my situation but I still am not getting alot of relieve. Suggestions Please..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FAT2FLAT43 2 Posted January 7, 2012 Are you drinking plenty of fluids? Drink drink drink and move around. I had the same problem and thought it was unbearable. I used the Gas x chewables and that helped along with moving around. the gas continues for me now and again, I just drink something hot and it helps too. I do more gas passing than burping and it feels great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lorena st 33 Posted January 7, 2012 For three days after surgery, I would take my liquid pain killers and a gasex strip every 3 hours (as soon as I felt the pain coming back). I had to sleep in a semi-upright position as well. I walked as much as I could, but to be honest, I didn't walk much. This allowed me to heal and the gas pains and other pains subsided after 3 days. It took about a week before I could sleep horizontally and I only had gas pains on a sporadic basis (which the gasex strips eased). It took approximately 4 weeks to feel completely normal again.

xavier 153 Posted January 7, 2012 Fluids and walking and mainly just the passage of time...this part sucks but it will be worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vonhelzing 3 Posted January 26, 2012 There's a gas relief product called Phazime (sp?) Got rid of the gas after surgery in about 5 minutes. it's in a purple or pink box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
