It's driving me nuts, my port hurts. Typically every day in the evening my port hurts. I thought at first I was eating to much but now I don't think that is it. I am a year post op. Why do I have port pain?

The only time mine has ever bothered me is when I have eaten too much. I was banded June 8th and have had a few instances when it has been sensitive and the only thing I can attribute it to is that I had eaten too much. At no other time has it bothered me, I wouldn't even know it was there except now that I have lost 70 lbs I can feel it when bathing.

My port is low (near and to the right of my belly button). I find if I have done intense exercise, or lots of strenous work I will get sore in my port area. Basically, anything that involves abdominal work can make me sore. I'm hoping to outgrow it.

Are you wearing pants with a waistband?

My port was quite sensitive for about the first year. Wearing a waistband or sitting bent at the waist for very long really agrivated it.

My port still hurts but I just had the surgery on 9/28/06. My scars itch like mad!!!!!! Is anyone experiencing this?

Ms. Sunnshyne

Your scars itch like all getout because they are healing. The itching about drove me to scratch myself raw/bloody. Then I found the BEST cream in the world. Genes Vitamin E Creme. It has 100,000 IU of Vitamin E. It also has Vitamin D and collagen. It's thick and very rich in emollients. A 1 lb tub is $12.99 and it lasts a long time (a little dab does a lot of moisturizing. You can order it online at http://www.genesvitamine.com. I have also seen it at Sams Club.

I don't see how I could be eating too much but maybe that's it...or excersise because I feel it after spin class...just really annoying. Thanks!
