Pain following surgery

[Hooch 10]

How long did your pain last after surgery? I had a large hiatal hernia repaired also.

I had almost no pain at all, but people are all across the board when it comes to post-surgical pain. The fact you had hernia repair might be a factor, too...

I had no pain at all post-surgery and still none six weeks later. I guess I got lucky.

I had sleeve and hiatal hurnia procedures as well. I really didn't have any pain. I was off pain meds as soon as I came home from the hospital (2 days). I have never had any pain. It is so odd since I am such a big weenie. lol

I had hernia repair too. Three days out. Pain only when I drink. Hope it gets better.

[Chris56 21]

6 days out. Still pain in stomach after eating or drinking but getting better. Stopped pain meds 48 hours after surgery. Walking and moving is a must!

I stopped all pain meds about 6-7 days post-op. I used my liquid hydrocodone until it ran out and then went to regular tylenol.

I had Surgery Wed but have an excruciating pain on my Right side... can’t barely walk. Also my stomach was rumbling a lot forced myself to drink more today was at 4 oz but at times able manage 6oz at one point ate all my broth tonight entire 8 oz.. I was surprised

Warm liquids often work better than room temperature or cold things, don't know the trueness of my thought but I believe the darkness makes the knotted and brutalized muscles relax. That still works better for me at 5 months(nearly) out.

Stop it "auto correct" I tried to tell someone warmness, not darkness, if I could reach you I would strangle your" know more than Frystr8-ness " out of YOU📱

It's different for everyone. I was in extreme pain for the first 3 days, the moderate even with pain killers. I'm 2 weeks post op and I still have pain. Sometimes I fine, then I get sharp pains near my lower left incision. It helps when I massage the area and apply pressure. Good luck! I hope your pain doesn't last as long as mine.

It’s been 10 days since surgery and I have hardly no pain I would say 2 out of 10 and it’s just my right side, but finally started sleeping on that side, Monday I get my staples remove, anxious for them to come off

You had staples? Where? My incisions were stitched on the inside and then just taped on the outside.

mine too, I kind of expected sutures myself but I guess my guy doesn't use them. Gosh he is such a cool laid-back guy but I'm sure he is relentless on the tennis court!
