Help Stomach Swelling

I am post op day 7 and would like to know how long does the stomach swell? It's like I'm 6 months pregnant! I'm passing gas and have had a few BM's. Maybe it will just take more time.

I walked 2 miles today and it felt great. When I got back I was really tired.

The more you walk, the more the gas moves, and it will come out.

Everyones differnt, once allot of the gas is gone, you will start to go back to normal.

Same here walk walk walk. Also try hot liquids it soothed inflammation, like hot tea or soups.
