Incision Pain will is ever end!?!?



Recommended Posts

How long did your incision pain last? Day 5 and it’s only slightly better. Would like to stop the pain meds because they turn my stomach.

I think mine lasted longer than usual. I had an infection at my big incision. It was at least 12 days for me until I didn't feel pain there :(

Mine hurt for weeks, you heal when you heal... But if it looks infected and you have a fever, nausea, vomiting, etc. Contact your team immediately

At least by 2 weeks after my incision pain was gone. I'm a little over 3 weeks since surgery and the pains, which are minor, I get now are more internal when I over do or something like that. The pain will be long gone for you soon!

5 days for me too. They don't hurt when I'm just laying down but if i get up or cough it hurts like hell. I've found that making sure my tummy is securely bound with my binder before attempting moving around helps hold everything in place and makes the pain far less.

Wow, that's crazy. It helps a lot. You should talk to your doctor about getting one.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
