Hello everyone,

Maybe it sound dumb, but i was banded 11/08/05 i have lost :clap2: 37lb.:clap2: So far so good, but till last sunday i start with walking (exercise). Today i feel like its not really pain, but my port hurts a little. Is this normal?

i hope you guys can understand my English, i know that it is bad. Port is where the doctor make the fill? I'm so sorry for this questions.

Please help.

Thanks

Mine can be tender at times, mainly when I sleep on it at night.

Your English is fine by the way.. where are you from?

Yep, good English, don't worry!!!

Your walking is probably what is making your port area hurt a little. Keep up the walking and maybe use an ice pack on your port after your walk. Just for a few minutes. That tissue is tender, just be "nice" to it. Good luck, and Congrats!

thanks guys,

I will keep going with my walking.

I'm from Aruba.

After I was banded, whenever I would do new things that would move my stomach muscles in a way that it hadn't moved since surgery, my port area would be sore. Even at over a year out I still find one of those every now and then and it's sore for a couple of days.

Just watch it carefully, if it gets red, or feels warm to the touch, go to your doctor because then it is an infection.
