Hi everyone! I have this burning pain on the left side in my lower stomach and I have no idea what it is from? There isn't am incision there at all. It hurts really bad when I bend especially or lay down and get up. I don't know if this is a normal thing or not? Has anyone experienced this? I was sleeved on March 3rd so it'll be 3 weeks tomorrow! Thanks everyone!

Are you sure it isn't coming from an area close to an incision? Internal stitches can pull when you bend or lay down and get up.

Could also be gas pain. Go for a walk

Hi, I was sleeved on the same day as you and have also had pain on my left side below any wounds. My doctor has told me it is pain from the muscles being pierced while doing the surgery and simply trauma to them, he said there may be a few little nerves playing up causing it too. I assume yours is the same problem.

I'm having muscle pains on my tight side.

Hi all,

Totally normal. See the link below. I had the same problem and last weekend I couldn't walk to the bathroom without crying. Now my internal stitches have loosened a bit and I feel so much better. I'll be 4 weeks on Tuesday
