[johny2k7 0]

Hello I had the gastric sleeve surgery 2 weeks ago and I am still feeling pain in the surgery area( like a quick aching pain when I bend down or move a certain way fast, can anybody tell me if they felt that and how long should I feel this pain thanks

If the pain is on movement only, it’s likely because your moving too much or too fast, stretching too far or pulling or lifting too much. Remember you had pretty major surgery & you have a lot of internal stitches & staples holding your tummy together.

Take it easy & give your body time to heal.

Of course if the pain occurs without moving or gets worse contact your medical team.

I'm 2.5 weeks out and if I bend certain ways I have a slight pulling sensation in my incisions. But I agree with @Arabesque. If the pain is getting worse and not better, call your surgery center.
