Pain On The Port Side

godsgirlnky

For the past couple of days I have had tenderness and pain on the side with my port. It happens when I am turning or reaching up/bending down. I haven't had pain on my side since healing from surgery. Has anyone else had this happen???

Yes!!! I just posted something about it. It is making me crazy! I'm only 2 weeks post op but not sure I should be feeling like this. I know for sure it is not gas pains but rather it feels like something is pulling on my muscles. Sometimes it is a brief stabbing sensation. It doesn't always happen though. I can't figure out what is triggering it.

I had it too my first week....quite often. My doctor said its normal...those abdominal muscles are healing from being "stabbed". However, as the swelling in my abdomen has subsided so has the pain. Its only every now and then. However, you should still consult with your doctor just to make sure.

My hubby read somewhere that the port tube is actually hooked to our muscles inside our stomach, not left loose as pictures show. Could this be the stabbing?

Well, I have to say that I am three-months post op and I still get the pain from time to time. I think Butterfly Effect may be on to something......... and I guess the shifts in our bodies may add to this??? I think everybody else's guess is as good as mine.....LOL

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
