Can't Burp

[lousianalady 44]

Im not sure if they damaged my throat in surgery, they certainly chipped my tooth! When air comes up it stops at my throat and causes a horrible pain until i swallow it back down. Then the gas hurts my tummy.. Any suggestions? I walk around with a water bottle because it does it all day. 6 days post op every since

Wow, sorry about your tooth. You are still bloated and swollen internally from the surgery. I imagine in a couple weeks as that subsides it will improve.

I don't know y i keep thinking i have healed in such a short time. It was much worse last night. I couldn't even sleep on my side.

I bend over and I fart, I stand up and I burp, the noises coming out of me are enough to make a 10yr old boy stand up and cheer, and think I am really cool..............8 days post op and am still bloated and swollen in the stomach, but no problem with the gas..........good luck to you........

I am 3 days post-op and the pain that gets stuck in between my throat and stomach is unreal! I know it's gas so I just wait extra long before another sip of Water.< /p>

Hi LA Lady

We were banded the same day

I also have the gas pain

Also my throat is really sore

The intubation did it but it's really bad and now when I wake up my mouth is totally dry

Not one drop of saliva

I have to keep Water next to me to wet my

mouth

I don't know why this is happening

Did they pay for your tooth?

Good luck !
