Surgery on Monday? You have done absolutely nothing wrong. Your tummy will still be feeling swollen from the op. It is normal to feel like this. Give yourself a chance to heal. Try walking to move those gas bubbles around and out. A heat pack will also help with the pain. It will get better.

I feel like this too and I was scared I am lactose intolerant. My doc told me to chew gas ex which is helping but I still feel the same. I had surgery 5/23

It’s the leftover gas from the surgery. Use a heating pad to soothe it and definitely walk around to break up the gas. I also liked a gentle self massage on my stomach, that helped me a lot.
