Sternum and back pain

[tifkins 2]

I'm Day7 Post op--- every single sip I take there's a pain in my sternum or back. It feels like I still have gas in me from the surgery. Is this possible. I've been walking and taking so much GasX over this past week I don't know why there would still

Be any gas in me. Does anyone else get this pain. If so how long did it last. It's very hard to stay hydrated when it hurts to drink anything.. Water, G2, unsweet tea etc. Help please

No I didn't have an hernia issues but maybe these are still spasms. It's just every sip hurts.
