pain at port

[LLSibley 1]

I was just wondering if anyone has more pain at the port site incision than the others? Also how long did it last? I just wonder although it's not great pain. I'm one of these people that always worry about everything.

How long have you been banded. It may take you 2-4 weeks to feel less pain. I remember I was very sore but it didn't last too long. Good luck.

I feel your pain. My port site hurts also. I hope it goes away. I feel fine so I'm not going to worry about it. It really only hurts when I press or bump it.

I was banded on 3/19. I wondered if I had done too much today to make it hurt. I was less careful than I had been. How long are you suppose to wait to bend at the waist or lift something over 12 pounds? I'm sure I was told but at my age I'm doing good to remember who I am.

I was banded 3/20 and no matter what I do my port incision hurts. I called the dr, had my pcp look at it and they all say it's fine. I have a seroma so it seeps if I bend over or turn wrong. I hope it gets better soon as it's driving me nuts. Hope yours gets better soon.

LLSibley it takes approx 6 weeks to heal entirely some people less some people more...dont worry about it...give it some time and you'll be fine..

My band (and port) is over 2 years old and every now and then my port will be tender. I figure it's a sign I need to go potty. .

Mine didn't start really hurting until I got a fill, but now its ok. It was my first one so I will check the next time and see if I have the same problem. I guess it just DEPENDS!!!

It's been 3 weeks since I got banded and my port site is a little sore, but a lot better than say last week. Every day it feels better.
