Anyone exerienced soreness almost 3 months after surgery?



Recommended Posts

I had surgery the end of April and by the first few weeks of June was feeling really good no longer sore and able to do anything. But recently we went on vacation nothing big but a long 2 day drive and a lot of time in the car after we got there, I was feeling fine but on the way home another 2 day drive my mussel that they cut through for the surgery started to get sore. I have been home a week now and it seems to be getting more sore everyday. Its not unbearable but i defiantly feel it. I was just wondering if anybody else has has this happen? I don't recall doing anything that would make it sore but who knows I am thinking maybe just sitting so long in the car could be behind it?

No, I don't have that experience. I am a lap band revision and my old port site is a little tender if I push on it, but I heard that is normal. You should call your doctor just in case and make sure there is no damage.

I'm not as far out as you but I definately notice that if I sit for extended periods of time, my stomach muscles get very sore. To the point that I have to hunch over a little and take a few minutes to stand up straight.

I was doing fine until 15 days out, then suddenly, I started feeling really sore in the same place you're talking about. It almost feels like a side cramp kind of pain that goes all the way through to my back. It also seems to be getting worse and my stomach in that area is REALLY tender. I am planning on calling the doc tomorrow to see what they say about it.
