dylanmiles23 2,198 Posted February 21, 2013 Congratulations on your surgery. To help with pain use a heating pad. The heat helps. The nurse had told me the gas wants to leave the body and has no place to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hip2bFITT 16 Posted February 21, 2013 For a little relief, lay in a recliner with your hips and legs a little higher than your body. The gas will move to your hip area where there is more room and then when you turn upright again your body will absorb some of it. Then walk, walk, walk... 1 ljordan1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aza359 64 Posted February 21, 2013 I was getting severe gas pains Nothing worked for me not walking, not a heating pad, not gasx, not tums... I ended up calling my surgeon they gave me a pill that dissolves under my tongue also that same day i started taking 1 Fiber Gummy. It helped me tremendously i am 1 week post op still have slight gas but nothing like before 1 ljordan1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
