Ok so I was sleeved Monday and released yesterday. No complications no nothing. However I have the worst gas pains ever!! It's in my back, neck, chest, and boy is it painful. Does anyone know what I can do to help get rid of this horrific pain??

Walk. I know you may not feel like it, but it works the best. Some Gas X strips help too.

Congrats on your surgery!!

I'm going to have to try that. I'm fine when I walk but I can hear all the air in my body :/. Thanks!

try a heating pad on your stomach and back it helped me and walking .Good Luck

Try rolling your shoulders, back and forth, and bringing your shoulder blades together....that's what helped me when I got pain in the upper back/shoulder area. Other than that...walk, heating pad and gas-x it up. Good luck on your recovery.

Walk, walk, walk, and then walk some more. Take easy baby steps at first if needed then pick up the pace. I had horrible shoulder and back gas pain for at least a month. Congrats on your surgery!!!

When I was sleeved...I didn't really expierance gas pain much...I was lucky I guess..but I just had my gallbladder surgery last week and omg I had the worse gas pain ever! I did walk..that was the best thing to do.. But I also had my husband massage my neck ad shoulder where the pain was and I used a heating pad...seemed to help for a little..but the more you do it it will go away..also FART!! I know tmi but it does help!!! My pains lasted like 4 days! But each day a little better! Hang in there itll get better..at least now I can sleep good again!
