so my tummy is swollen and bloated..... im 5 days post op.

Im not in very much pain and I feel great so I know its notan infection.. how long does this last? or long did you have it?

This feeling stayed about 10 days for me, 2 weeks max.

I still feel a bit tender at times, but most of the time I am fine. If I vaccuum or do laundry I can feel the burn. Also I jogged a little on the treadmill and I felt the pain a little. I am almost 3 weeks out. I don't need my pain meds and I am doing fine. I believe I am still swollen, but that may be wishful thinking lol.

About two weeks... Good luck!

My tummy was swollen for about 2 weeks too, but the pain I had in my right upper side lasted for almost a month. I guess that's the hole that they took my stomach out through?? That spot was all bruised and swollen for what seemed like forever, but it all goes away eventually. I had alot of bowel gas and bowel "issues", so I think that didn't help my bloated belly!! One day you'll wake up and be moving along and realize that you feel alot better, it's a nice surprise! Good luck!
