Soreness after tge treadmill



Recommended Posts

I was doing my daily vigorous walk on the treadmill and all of a sudden I started to feel this shooting pain by my belly button. I don't have a fever, I'm not feeling nauseous ( ate dinner fine) but this pain is not going away. Could I have pulled something? Ripped something? I'm freaking out a bit cause this pain is internal on the left side of my belly button and I have no clue what it could be. I am 3 weeks post op. Help!

You prob over did it. I is really important to exercise, however you really can't over do it. If it continues to hurt I would contact your doctor. I would rest and take it easy for the next few days.

The three surgeons I spoke to all recommended no vigorous exercise for 8 weeks post op. Light walking only. If you're having pain, give your surgeon a call and ease your mind.

vigorous walk on the treadmill

MLCT

I would call your doc about the pain - "he" is the only one that can tell you what has happened, or has not happened - and what to continue to do in your future recuperation

at 3 weeks PO - i was told i should/could walk - but no other exercise for awhile

remember you just had major surgery!!!!!

your tummy needs a rest

slow down!!!!!

gotta learn to walk before you can run

the only "vigorous" anything i did 3 weeks PO - was take a 90 minute power nap!!! :lol:

take care

feel better

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
