Donald Garvey 31 Posted August 23, 2014 I've been walking a mile every day. Today after my walk I noticed that two of my incision spots were sore and raw after walking, I think its from my shirt rubbing against them...anyone else ever have this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pik 262 Posted August 24, 2014 I'm trying to see when your surgery was. When was it? Here recently I have had some tenderness but I thinkit was from where my pants were rubbing on that lowest left side incision. Of course I had issue with pain in the beginning, but I am 5 weeks out now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawnakers 40 Posted August 24, 2014 I am 5 weeks out tomorrow and I still have soreness in the largest incision. My belly is actually puckered in where the sewed up my insides to the muscle wall. I wonder if it will ever feel better! :-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if it will ever feel better! :-( Mine stayed like that for quite a while. As the weight comes off things are leveling out. I can feel the tightness of the muscles seemingly from the incisions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lovsports9 1 Posted August 25, 2014 I am 5 days out from surgery and the only two places that hurt are where they cut inside. Both the stomach and the intestines. I noticed that the lower of the two is bruised today also. I was hoping this would go away quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They were all bruised in the beginning and the one that is left still is the upper right sided one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheers92 5 Posted September 11, 2014 The incision where they pulled the stomach out pained me for over 5 weeks. My surgeon says some people take 4-6 weeks to heal. I had the burning and ripping open feeling. Finally after 4 weeks it's starting to calm down. Hang in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jolisue 112 Posted September 26, 2014 I had a hiatal hernia repair and the surgeon had to pull my stomach down from the chest cavity into the abdomen. That is sore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
