Ree 215 Posted December 20, 2013 How common is shoulder pain and did you experience it? I'm having shoulder pain in my left shoulder that comes and goes. And I was wondering how long it will be before the pain usually goes away? FYI I have not been able to pass any gas yet except through my Mouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Madam Reverie 2,958 Posted December 20, 2013 Took a couple of weeks for mine to be fully eradicated.. and yes, I had shoulder pain, too. You can take all the 'gas-x' /colic drops you like; walk around - I am of the humble opinion, it dissipates when it wants to... Sorry you're suffering. Hang on in there, try to keep mobile and it will go eventually... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McButterpants 2,846 Posted December 20, 2013 My shoulder pain lasted about a week. Walking was the only thing that helped with the gas - and maybe like Reverie states above it was more relief from the gas pain than getting rid of the gas. It made me feel better.

Butterthebean 8,146 Posted December 20, 2013 The gas in your upper body cavity that is making your shoulder hurt will not all pass as normal gas does. That is to say, it is not in you stomach or GI tract. It is within your body cavity itself. It will ease up in the days ahead and lots of walking is the best thing for it.
