Port area pain after eating????

shome · July 12, 2008

Hello, I am 3 1/2 weeks post-op & having lots of pain after eating. Also it feels like it is swollen or something, I was thinking originally that it is the scar tissue but it goes from large to small & back again throughout the week. It is weird, I didn't expect it. I don't have ANY restriction, but Dr. said that is normal. I go in for 1st fill on the 21st (can't wait).

Has anyone else experienced this?

Happens to me sometimes. I'm on maintenance and when I eat too much, but not enough to slime...this happens.

I don't know why it causes my port area to hurt.

But just know it happens and just remember what you ate and how much ....and then don't do it again.

Hello everyone i got my band 3 weeks ago. I thought i would feel better by now i have a sore pulling feeling around the port area that wont quit. I cant sit without soreness and cant walk for to long either. It seems that everything i do causes pulling and pain. Could someone please tell me if they have experienced this problem. Thank you
