Bufflehead 6,358 Posted June 12, 2013 My doctor told me, and ppl here all seem to say, that it is not painful at all but it feels very strange. Like there is a snake moving around inside you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
efeezell 17 Posted June 12, 2013 Just wondering how painful it is when ur drain tube is removed?? I'm not trying to sound like a baby but needs to know what I'll be facing on Thursday... Mine wasn't that painful when removed. Kinda felt like a hard pinch. Actually hurt more when he took the stitches out from it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ah0505 42 Posted June 12, 2013 Ditto above, not "painful" but a weird pulling sensation. Having the tape ripped off the tube site dressing is somewhat painful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted June 12, 2013 No pain, just feels weird. Like a little tube being pulled out of your side. seriously.. Kind of like as if they were sliding a string out of you. Piece of cake! Promise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamie5711 27 Posted June 12, 2013 Thanks everyone!! One of the nurses said it will feel like my intestine are being ripped from my stomach! Maybe he was joking.. I feel much better now that I know you guys have actually had it taking out and knows what it really feels like Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
