Has Surgery Yesterday, Just Got Home This Morning.

Really really sore, with aches and pains. Been drinking nothing but water. :l How long does it normally take to feel better in the sense where i can lay down without the aches and such?

Everyone is different but on the 4th day I noticed a lot of improvement.

Give yourself at least a week to feel human again! Good luck.

I'm only 18 and never had surgery before so i have no idea what to do in a situation like this. Defiantly going to keep resting in bed/keep drinking bits of water and walking. Glad i don't have much gas pain.

Try walking it moves the gases out faster. Today is day three for me and my pain has decreased since I've been moving around.
