Internal stitches pain

[TXBrittBritt 48]

I was told that around day 14 or 15 the internal stitches that were placed would tear internally and that I may feel it or I may not. Well I feel it!! Really weird sensation and super uncomfortable... Every time I move it is worse..... I haven't had pain Meds since day 4 but I took some today.

Has anyone else experienced this? Did it just last a day?

I have been feeling a kind of burning pain whenever I stand or turn when lying or sitting down. I dont feel it when I'm walking unless I stretch.

It has scared the crap outta me.

Hey Jennna! Luckily the pain only lasted about 48 hrs, I am feeling better now! Hope you start feeling better too!

Hey, I started having some pain in the area where the largest incision was too. I noticed it when laying down and when I changed positions in bed. It's not excruciating, it just feels like a bit of discomfort. I thought it was just my abs sore from some fun time with the Mrs., but its lingered for the past 2 days. At what point is this an actual problem?

I would say as long as it is bearable pain you are okay. It may also be your internal stitches but it may just be sore! It shouldn't last more than 72 hrs if it's the stitches, but if it becomes to bothersome I would give your doc a call.

I had it -- in my case it lasted about 5 days because I overdid it one day. I had to take the pain meds then too. But they dissolved and it went away.
