4 days post op. Pain at top of sternum

Is this normal? Feel it when is breath deep and eat. I also had a hiatal hernia repair.

It used to hurt me to swallow anything. Is it when your eating? Call you doctor. Maybe they'll bring you in to check it out. But I'm sure it's normal

I had the same pain. It was hiatal hernia repair. The pain faded in a few days.

Thanks guys! Nervous wreck here obviously.

Could be the hernia repair but could also be gas. Walk as much as you can and if you can, take Gas-x.
