Did I Flip My Port?



Recommended Posts

I was changing my clothes an hour ago and I twisted my mid-section a little funny. Now it kills in my port area! How do you know if you've flipped your port?

I would imagine I would feel something tear. Am I wrong? If the pain isn't gone by tomorrow morning I'll call my doctor, but it would be nice to know the signs of a flipped port tonight. Thanks in advance for your help!

I don't think you did..I think you might have just stretched your incision a little mine feels that way alot too.. just be careful and stay away from elastic waist bands!! they also contribute to pain!!

Thanks for the quick feedback, Ashley! It's just a bit unnerving because the port area was finally starting to feel pretty good.
