You guys, im having a ton of pain/discomfort under my left rib near my big incision. :-( im scared somethings wrong. Have any of yall experienced this? When im sitting still or laying down i have little to no pain. But moving, it hurts :-( no fever or vommiting. But it sure is uncomfortable.

My biggest incision was on my right side and that is where I had the most pain when moving. I could tell it was getting better and less painful everyday so I did not worry. If the pain is really bad and not getting better I would call your doctor. When was your surgery?

It's fairly common. Have you over did it? That is the site where most surgeon's take the stomach out and it is somewhat temper-mental. Perhaps you can put your binder on to help support the incision site. If you get feverish, or the incision gets red and hot, call you doc or go into the ER. It could be an infection.

My surgery was last tuesday. But the big incision is nice and clean with no drainage or warmth. I did do it over big time today! More then ive done since the surgery.

I had some left shoulder pain too,if you think is too strong go the ER or call your Dr tomorrow if is still there.

I am almost 5 weeks out now and didn't start to get the discomfort under my ribcage until around the 2-3 week mark when I was back to my normal routine. My doc said it was normal and it really only lasted about 10 days. He said that if I felt ok in the morning when I woke up and I got sore as the day progressed that it was just me working the muscles in the area he had to muck around in to get to the stomach and it should clear up in a few days.

If it is really bad though, I would say that you need to call your surgeon just to make sure everything is normal.

Did you have a hernia repair?? If you did, it is more painful than the sleeve. And it's right where you are describing.
