blizair09 3,250 Posted October 6, 2016 I am one week post-op today, and mine aren't giving me any more issues. In fact, they told me to take off the strips today and I went to the tanning bed. I just have 2 little cut-looking marks on my chest and 1 on the inside of my belly button. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M579 19 Posted October 6, 2016 Just be careful guys. I didn't have a whole lot of pain either after the first few days and then I did too much and felt like I pulled an internal stitch out and it hurt for two days. I am three weeks out today and I was feeling good and just did too much. So even if they aren't bothering you, you should take it easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tanya0974 24 Posted October 6, 2016 I did too much yesterday and an incision is sore too. Ice helps a bit. It hurts to get out of bed but I have to walk. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Is that the incision where they removed the stomach? I know my surgeon said that's the one that hurts more than any of them.

mr1121 59 Posted October 14, 2016 I think anyone having extreme pain say 7-10 days post op your incisions shouldn't bother you that much, however if you get the leaking syndrome that could cause a lot of pain. Maybe just get checked out Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr1121 59 Posted October 14, 2016 Oh and I have 5 incisions, I was told would only be 3. Forgot to ask why that is.. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nerdgrl 61 Posted October 14, 2016 Mine hurt until about day 7, then itched until about day 14. I'm at day 15 and for the first time, they don't really bother me anymore. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
