soreness along right side...



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I'm almost 2 months post op. A few weeks ago i felt like i pulled a muscle on my right side and had some pain. It's since then increased. It starts in the middle of my stomach, right above my ribcage and goes all the way around to the middle of my back. My whole right side feels like there is restriction when I go to move bend a certain way. It's also bad at night when I try to turn over in bed. I don't feel sick or have any symptoms of a fever or anything like that...just a lot of soreness. has anyone else experienced this. It's been going on for a couple of weeks. I would assume if it was a gas pocket, it would have worked it's way out by now? Any info would be great. I've made an appointment to see my family doctor, but can't see her until the 5th of January. And I really don't feel that it's warrant for an Emergency room visit. Thanks!!

Great that you scheduled a doctor appt. I would schedule with the surgeon who did your procedure since s/he knows what they did internally. It could be a pulled muscle, scar tissue, gall bladder or your bowels not emptying completely or something/nothing. Think positive, keep a diary of what you are feeling, eating, and doing. Take with you to the doctor so he can get a full understanding. Good luck.
