GradyCat 3,695 Posted February 7, 2019 Walking is the best thing to get that gas out of there. Walk, walk, walk up and down the hospital corridors and in circles around the house once you get home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only having Water for now Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app I had terrible gas pain in my shoulder from gallbladder surgery. I would try and position myself lying on one side for an hour, then sitting but leaning forward, then lying on the other side. I honestly don't know if it helped or just the walking, movement and time. but it was really bad day 2/3 and then went away pretty suddenly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lorrie Maiorano 0 Posted February 7, 2019 I have had many orthoscopic surgery’s and with some I have had the gas pains and with some I have not it’s just luck of the draw I gas. It will go away keep that in mind I know it’s extremely painful the gases are escaping from your body through your skin it’s not through your typical way hope walking does help. Another thing to keep in mind is do not drink Water with ice ice will actually cause more gas maybe use the swabs for your mouth rather than the ice cubes good luck sweetie keep us posted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
