Yikes I don't know. I have mine on Dec 10th. I think they told us in class that unless it is oozing stuff that's it's ok. But it would not hurt just the call the doctors office and ask that's why they're there. Keep us posted.

Today is day four so guess its norm I have 6 incision all lil ones just that one big on left side

I was only in for little over 24 hours...I half 6 all tiny hardly notice them now

One of my incisions felt like it had a knot under it, was slightly warm and did bruise by day 4. It continued to be sore for about 2 weeks while the other incisions didn't hurt much. I was told that one incision gets used more than the others and can hurt more. After 2 weeks, it still had a bit of a knot, but it's gone now. I had my surgery on October 15.

  • 2 weeks later...

How many days was everyone in the hospital??

I was in 3 nights. I had rny and gall bladder removed. You will be fine. Make sure you get up and walk. It helps with the gas.

Keep us all posted. Good luck!

I was in the hospital for 24 hours. Im 10 weeks out and the incision on the left side still looks bruiesd even after it healed.

Had my surgery on nov 19th haven't no problems except hiccups, bruises are almost gone. No pain at all, hopefully going to stage 3 this week, only aloud to walk. Started weight 250 now 233 , ,

So glad to hear you say that. My surgery is tomorrow and I am feeling really nervous. Had a friend tell me she was worried for me. Said she was afraid I wouldn't be the same person any more and that I wouldn't have the same energy.
