Painful burning/ ripping

[krissyvsg 47]

Hey I'm exactly seven days post op! And about two to three days post I started to experience this pulling/burning sensation by my biggest incision that hurts like hell for about 30secs every time I moved to walk or bend! The feeling has def gotten less and less haven't felt for a day or so! Any one else experience this? My doc said it's normal!

It sounds pretty normal! My incisions hurt HORRIBLY at first. That was my biggest complaint when I first went home. But it got better and better. Stay active, but don't strain yourself too much.

Yep. That's where I hurt the worst. Glad it's getting better, though!

I would keep an eye on that. Even though I haven't had my sleeve done yet, ive had many other surgeries in my past. That could be a sign of a hernia hapening. Please take it easy. Let your doctor know if it happens again. I herniated, it felt like you explained. Ripping, burning and at one point a explosion for a quick second. Take it easy.

I use an ice pack on my incisions once or twice a day and it has really helped with my pain.

It's the incision that theynpulled ur tummy out of- I had it and now -lost 3 weeks post op I have it again because I got a cough and I coughed so hard one of my inside stitches popped- this is the worse pain ever but my surgeon says it has to heal on its own-

My incisions were a BITCH. lol! I love them though because they represent this huge thing I'm doing. But had a lot of that kind of pain. And then 4 weeks in I was constipated and the easing of that caused me to tear one of my incisions and my healing was set back by 2 weeks. Just move as little as possible and take your pain meds or liquid tylenol.
