Is pain in one area of stomach normal?



Recommended Posts

I am 5 days post op. I feel great, I am down a total of19 lbs as of this morning since 3 days pre op. I have this nagging soreness type of pain in one spot of my stomach. I believe it is probably right below the incision where the stomach was removed and is probably normal. Can someone tell me if this is normal and how long the soreness will be there? Also, how much should I be walking at this point? So excited, and looking forward to my new lifestyle!

A soreness in that area is usually due to the internal stitches "healing"

And a good rule of thumb about the walking?

At least 10 to 15 minutes and hour.
