Incision and gas pain

[Juairy 6]

How do I reduce these gas pains and the pain from the incisions !!! 😩 driving me crazy

Walk as much as possible! It's the best way to get the gas moving out. The incisions just have to heal. If they bother you when moving, try using a small pillow to splint, or apply pressure, when getting up or sitting down.

Thank you!!! I’ve been trying to get up as much as possible since it’s the only thing that seems to help. Besides this is grateful that for now I can keep my fluids down without feeling sick it’s been a big help

It gets a little better every day. Just keep plugging along!

Do the incisions hurt without movement or when you flex your abdomen in any way? If the latter, hold a pillow against yourself.

... As an aside, as I write this I am in a gym parking lot and on my list of weights this evening are hoist abdominal crunches at 205 lbs for 36 reps total... So don't worry, it'll go away eventually then you can look forward to post workout pains.

Sometimes for example when I’m sleeping the smallest movements even if it’s tilting a little it causes it to hurt that’s when I would take a pain med and it would relax the pain for some time but its getting better everyday that passes
