It puts air back into your stomach and you're trying to get the air they pumped into your belly during surgery out and it only comes out in two ways. Your mouth or your ass.

I started using straws after about a month. I have had zero issues with them, but everyone is different.

Straws, chewing gum, and sodas - all result in extra air in the tummy. It can be uncomfortable and some say can stretch the tummy.

My surgeon said it has nothing to do with air but more with the fact that it may be painful. If it works for you then go for it.

I've used straws a few times, before remembering that I wasn't supposed to. I didn't feel any discomfort.

My doctor said straws can be used after 6 months or 6 weeks for me(my manual is at my house). I haven't tried them yet.
