shoulder pain all of the sudden?! please help

[Skinnyminded 21]

So im 2 1/2 weeks post op an im experiencing left shoulder pain and left throat/gland pain all of the sudden, now i read in wls surger for dummies book if you experience shoulder pain when you leave the hospital to call your surgeon right away?! Do anybody know why or what this is?

i was sleeved on march 19 and have shoulder pain and gland throat pain too. but i do not know why either except they told me it is gas.

[ifish 1]

told it was c02 gas trapped in the cavitiy or between the diaphram and liver was also told it would go away in about a day or so

[Skinnyminded 21]

Ya idk this doesn't feel like,gas!!! It's muscle aches idk. And my glad. I feel kinda worried. Why all of the sudden? The weight loss surgery for dummies,book said call your surgeon if you,experience shoulder pain?!

I am now experiencing your symptoms minus the shoulder pains. What was your outcome?

[Skinnyminded 21]

Blocked salivary gland.

[Skinnyminded 21]

The shoulder pain was,muscle. But it comes and goes now. The,gland pain kinda feels,like the pain you feel when you have a,sore throat.. They said it's nothing,to do with surgery?!

[Skinnyminded 21]

Maybe,yours,is,allergies

[LifeBackNye7 44]

That is exactly what it feels like in my throat! All of a sudden. I never had allergies before but I hope it is just a new allergy. Thanks so much for responding

Yea it all of the,sudden went away and it helps,when I eat sour things like lemons. But if it doesn't go away get it checked out.

Thanks It lasted 3 days then went away.. Thank God! I was soo stressed about it..

Yea mine did to but came back.. just look out for it.. I got dry mouth with it to.. it's possibly lack of salivary production they said, so it pools in your gland and causes pain.. if that's what it is..,?
