  • take very small sips and make sure it's not too cold or too warm. Room temperature is best for the first couple of weeks.

I feel the same way drink just a little sip at a time

it's too early. It will get better very quickly but if it's not better in the next couple of days or if it's really painful talk to your doctor. For me it was uncomfortable but not very painful.

Small sips, no rushing. It will feel better before you know it!

I was aided with this by keeping a gas strip handy while I drink. I also switched over to a liquid hydrocodone which caused me to itch, but kept pain away at a greatly reduced dosage, since I had to sip so slow, I was able to monitor to the drop the amount needed to control my pain.

I have heard that the external pressure from residual gas can make it hurt like that. Consider walking a bit more.
