Port Question

hi everyone,

i was banded on oct5. i work in a hardware store and just recently have been a lot more active in work,lifting heavy boxes,putting out stock,going up and down steps,etc.

i have noticed that on those very active days,after like 2 hours of activity,my port protrudes! i dont have any pain,its just an uncomfortable feeling. but it sticks out a lot,then after i get home from work,and relax a bit,it goes back to normal.

has this happened to anyone else? is it normal?

any answers would be appreciated!

Hello

I never heard of that but then it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. When in doubt call the doctor. That is what i do.

Good luck.
