I had my surgery 3 days ago and am feeling a burning feeling when I take a deep breath. I know that a breathing tube was put down my throat while I was under and I also had a esophogus hernia repair. I'm wondering if it is normal to feel this type of pain? If so, how long before it goes away?

Dear Long2

It was "normal" for me. I think a result of the swelling inside. It subsided and then oddly enough it came back about 2 weeks later for 3-4 days for no apparent reason. Went in for an x-ray thinking the band had moved but nothing was wrong. My doctor reassured me these feelings fell within the normal realm. Hope yours goes away.

DragonSingapore,

Thanks for the reply. I figured it was normal but had never read about anyone having it so I wasn't sure.
