2 weeks post op pain and burning



Recommended Posts

I am entering week 3 post op. Saw my doctor after one week said all was good and I started feeling better too, felt like I was returning to normal. Today I went to get out of bed and has a sharp pain and burning sensation on my

Left side near where your stomach is, near my belly button. Sharp/ burning lasts a minute and then is extremely sore like a bruise. I called my doctor and I do not see them for another two weeks, he said I must have pulled my internal stitch but it just happened again this evening. I have been able to drink and eat my puréed foods with no issues. I am not running a fever either. I am just curious did this happen to anyone else, same location and feeling?

@@sam1016 - I had some pain in that area but more centered around my belly button. That is where my stomach was removed from my abdomen.

I did left something a bit too heavy and had a pain in that general area around the 3 week timeframe.

Are you watching your weight restrictions? Are you pulling, or exerting yourself, getting out of bed where you may have pulled that internal stitch?
