20 days post surgery, painful to bend

[cvm 4]

Anyone have issues bending? I've noticed that if I bend at the waist for anything I experience pain. Does that go way with time?

That's because of the muscle and abdominal wall you have the largest incision there where your stomach was remove

You might want to talk to your surgeon sooner than later. Just to make sure.

I have the same pain. It's not horrendouse but it's uncomfortable and I can tell if I go further it will hurt pretty bad. So I avoid bending over.

Hello

I had this to. You will be pleased to know it goes and will be back to it in no time. I think it took me around 6 weeks to feel better. Always consult your Dr if worried.

All the best in your journey
