I was sleeved on the 5th and I am having pain on my left side. Also where my largest incision is above my belly button the swelling wont go down. Anyone else experience this?

call your surgeon's office if you have any concerns. The pain in your side is most likely gas from surgery, it can take a while to go away

as for the incision...is it red and warm to the touch? It is possible to get an infection at the incision site.

No it does not seem infected just extra swollen.

I have that same pain and I had my sleeve done on May 10th. I'm in pain when I stand up, sit down, sneeze or cough.

May 11th here. I also only have pain standing up and sitting down and coughing. I am also sleeping sitting up, laying down is pretty painful. This is the only time i have pain. I have not had 1 drop of pain medication since i left the hospital.

Everyday I'm getting stronger and stronger. I have been wearing an abdominal brace and that helps tremendously. I find just standing up more than sitting down to be very helpful, walking also helps.
