RissyRoe 25 Posted August 3, 2012 A lot of it has hinge away but there's a little bit that has floated up into my chest and esophageal area. I even have some lingering on my left side. Today will be post-op day #4, when will it go away? It's so uncomfortable and at times makes it hard to swallow and lay in certain positions. Besides walking is there anything I can do to get it out quicker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
