When Does The Soreness Go Away?

[Winter84 35]

Had my surgery on the 10 of July, I get my staples out tomorrow however they till feel sore. Did this happen to anyone?

Well, having had multiple abdominal surgeries, I can tell you that big or small, the incisions are gonna smart for a while. Probably a good 6 weeks before the tenderness goes away. Hang in there! I am one day behind you on our journey!!

Ok thanks, I was wondering if I was doing to much.

Did you have open RNY? I had lap...incisions were closed w Dermabond glue, so no staples. Hope you feel better soon:)

Yes I had a open RNY,I felt a lot better when my doctor took the drain out, I have 13 staples and it's very sore.

[Mrs.D 39]

Ouch, that does sound painful...I didn't have a drain, but I hear they are uncomfortable. I hope the staples are out soon....don't worry, you will get back to normal:)

Ah... The drains are wonderful, eh? Lol. I had one for the r n y and one for the hernia, just had the hernia one removed. They suck

Hi it took about 3 weeks for the soreness to go away. I'm a tummy sleeper so I was so glad when the soreness finally went away. Good luck to you
