angiemorda 39 Posted July 9, 2013 If it helps any, it is completely normal! I am one month post op on Wednesday and that burning pain just finally stopped. There is a stitch in there to your muscle which causes all the pain. My stitch finally popped last night unlike most whose pop within 2 weeks! I am so glad that today was first day without that pain. I have one month appt tomorrow n glad to b down 37 lbs from surgery day! Good luck n hope your stitch pops sooner then mine' n u can continue on with your new life! 2 Aline728 and getlownurse reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HannahB 6 Posted July 9, 2013 This is normal. I would still ask to be safe. My doctor put a stitch in my biggest incision that attached to my muscle. It was an awful pulling feeling that last 17 days. The stitch finally dissolved and I felt a pop. The pain went away immediately. Thank you so much! I have had horrible thoughts of that I've done something wrong..haha. This really makes me feel better and I can't wait for my day 17! Does the "pop" hurt?

Does the "pop" hurt? I felt more of a release and then the pain was gone. It didn't hurt at all. 1 Aline728 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

uccmart 23 Posted July 14, 2013 I am 3 weeks out. Today I sneezed and felt no pain. What the heck? Just a lucky sneeze I thought. Then layed down to take a nap and layed on my side with no pain. My stitch must have popped. I didn't feel it. I sure am glad. Now I have no pain at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
