I'm a week an 2 days post-op. I have one incision that has been hurting awful. I think it was the camra in ision. I cant bend over the pain is awful. Even hard just wslking around for short periods. On the outside of incision nothing red it looks fine. I do see doc firday...anyone have this issue?

Yes, I definitely experienced that horrible pain and I know exactly what you're describing. The only relief I got was from wearing an abdominal surgical binder. Actually, I bought two because I had to wear one while showering. I had the pain for about 4 weeks, and one morning I woke up, dreading sitting up because of the stabbing pain I would feel with any movement, and the pain was gone. It went away totally and completely with no lingering effects... gone but not forgotten. Look online at abdominal surgical binders and you will know what I'm talking about. It helped so much with the pain. Good luck.

That's pretty normal. I'm a month out and I still get a little pain from that area every now and then.

I had one that hurt more than the others though not as bad as you describe, keep a watch out for infection or excessive fluid build up and if there are ANY doubts, see your doctor !!!

Thank you all....Sadie 15 I have actually been using my belly band from pregnancy it's pretty old so I'm wondering if it's just worn out. does seem to work an help but not quite enough but I will look into what you said

thank you so much.

Does anyone experience lower left back pain it just started last night out of nowhere a stabbing pain will not let up.......ouch!!!

I have six incisions and the far left one is the one where the drain port was and also the one where the bigger equipment went in. It hurts the worst. Waking up and sitting up and moving is the most painful time of the day. I can't stand up straight either. I'm 5 days post-op. I also have a weird pain in what it feels like is my kidney on that side. My husband said I am bruised on my back too so I'm not sure where that came from. I am still taking the liquid pain killer every 4 hours. I gotta stay ahead of the pain. Man it hurts.

I am in the same situation... Kinda. I wouldn't say it 'hurts' but is a rather nagging, uncomfortable feeling... Like perhaps my staples are tugging. I will say it 'bleeping' hurts when I sneeze!!! If I can, I'll grab a pillow and hold tightly when I have to. I too am 5 days po. My biggest problems so far are, stretching feeling from staples, not standing completely straight yet, protein intake and wishing to sleep on my side/tummy!!! I can drink a TON of water thru day tho which is good. I just want to skip ahead to 3 months po!
