Weird Port Pain



Recommended Posts

Anyone have their port hurt if they over drink/over eat? I have noticed that if I eat alot if my band does not hurt, my port will. Yes, the PORT on my belly will hurt. Do you think the saline gets squished down?

I have that happen sometimes, but also my port hurts randomly at different times anyhow. It seems to hurt when I'm really stressed out or upset, but that's not the only times either. I still haven't figured out a pattern to it.

Hi Poodles,

I also have this phenomenon!!! My theory is that it is caused by gas and bloating in the stomach that pushes the port into the abdomen. I notice when I have this pain it almost seems like my port is really sticking out and trying to push through my skin. Thanksgiving grazing made me feel like I was gonna explode!!!

Yes that happens to me. Also my wire bra pushes down on my fat which pushes down on my port so check you bra!

You know - no - but I do have port pain with some movements. And some intimate positions have had to be ruled out b/c my port just can't take it.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
