the nurse told me that I could have gum, just make it sugar free gum. that was at my first appt after my surgery so maybe a month and half out

I feel your pain I really do, I had horrible Belly pain around the largest incision site.. It was awful.. Getting up off the recliner couch ect was extremely painful, I slept in a recliner for about 5-6 weeks after surgery and I couldnt bend over to tie my shoes or pick things off the floor... I was checked for a hematoma or hernia and all felt great .. They told me not to lift or do anything that caused pain and give it another 4 weeks.. That was at my first checkup.. So it took about 5 weeks. It was sore and felt like a muscle was on its last limb and ready to rip open.. I was so relieved when it went away, they said some people get this and they dont know why! I hope your pain subsides soon!
