Carol.mcpherson 25 Posted August 1, 2013 I am 7 days post-op and have been having back pain..typically mid-back but last night my lower back also started hurting. Not sure if its from gas from surgery or from over compensating when walking as port incision area is still pretty sore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted August 1, 2013 Are you having regular bowel movements? If not ask your surgeon what to take. Being stopped up can cause the symptoms you mention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
