Getting air out after bring freshly sleeved?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I just got sleeved about 39 hours ago. The pain from incision sights are tolerable, but the gas pain, especially in my back, is excruciating! Please help! Any suggestions other than walking (because I have been doing a lot of walking and it hasn't alleviated the pain or helped in its release)? Your advise would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

I used Gas-X strips that dissolve in your mouth. I think they also have chewables. Sorry you're in so much pain. Hope it gets better soon. :)

Gas x strips were a life saver for me! Keep walking and sipping!

Update: during my non-walking time I used a heating pad on my back area...MAJOR relief!!! Pushed the gases forward, but the pain created in my tummy is incomparable (completely not as severe) to the pain in my back. Again, thank you all for the suggestions.
