Incision pain several months after surgery?



Recommended Posts

I’m 5+ months RNY. I’m past my goal at 140lbs. The past 2 weeks intermittently I will get a quick twinge. Not pain just a twinge usually near the incision sites. Maybe 3-4 of the sites randomly. My guess is maybe the nerves that were cut are growing back or that since I’ve lost a lot that the fat padding the sites isn’t as thick so the skin etc is more tender.
Anyone relate to this?

That's weird. Phantom pain, huh? I don't know, I haven't had that.

Hmmm. Is it on the surface and like pin needle electric spark sharp? Or is it duller like a knife and deeper? Like almost deep inside?

It’s more on the surface, maybe an inch deep. I also get a very mild discomfort occasionally I think just below the pouch. Usually after eating. This pain is more of a quick zing vs the pouch is more a dull ache or nausea.
