Help!

I am in my third week post op and I am wondering if it is normal for my left incision to be still extremely painful. I know that it is the one they removed my stomach from and there are stitches on the inside muscle. I mean on a scale of 0-10. This is probably an 8 (pain wise) My incisions are all healed, good color.

I would call my doc about pain at 8/10 and 3 weeks out just to make sure this is normal, just in case it's not. Be on the safe side and check with them.

I am 3 weeks post op. I have no pain and I had a band removed and converted to a sleeve. My incisions are itchy at times. I think you should call your surgeons office and tell them whats going on.

I'm calling today, Thanks.

My incisions pain was actually quite low for the most part, ( 2wks post op) but weird thing, yesterday I put on a real pair of jeans to go to the grocery store and when I changed that night, my incision tapes were all lose and had pulled off for the most part. Today I have this one little spot that really hurts and it wont' go away, almost feels like a lump underneath. Has this happened to anyone?

I do have a small one that feels like a lump underneath. I think it might be internal sutures.

I'm having the same issue. I was told that I probably stretched one of the stitches and once the stitches pop that I will feel better. Inpatiently awaiting that day

Tell us what you find out! I got into bed funny the other night and my insides huuuuurt on the left!!
