sex after banding

Has anyone experienced any pain or pulling sensation in the port area after having sex.

It's probably muscular just like it would be after any strenuous exercise. It's nothing to worry about, but depending on how recently your surgery was you might want to take it easy.

My doctor's advice has always been "if it doesn't hurt, go for it" with regard to post-surgery activity. So it follows that if it hurts or is uncomfortable, wait a little longer.

Thanks for the reply.There was any pain during it was hours after,I even had a little pink show of blood. I hope the port is ok,can it move.The sex was very gentle.I know that the band can slip can the port also move?

Well, sure, the port can move, but that's usually not something one can do TO it once it's healed. How long ago did you have surgery? Are your incisions healed up? The port is stitched to you internally so yes, it's possible to rip stitches if there hasn't been enough healing time.

I had my surgery on May 15,2007.Now that you mention it,it feels like a stitch made have been pulled from maybe doing to much.Because I had also gone to the grocery store and loaded in all the bags myself.Thanks for the response....

I had a pain, my surgery was on the 21st... but, that was only with an O. It didn't hurt after that. I think you should talk to your doctor. We weren't even that gentle. Call him/her and ask.
