Swallowing air while sipping

Whenever I sip any fluids I get pain in my hiatus and sleeve. How do I prevent this?

I had that same issue. I'm a week post op now and I finally don't always feel like I've gulped down sir with my fluids. I was also severely dehydrated for the first 5 days. I just started to be able to get fluids in. Good luck :)


I also had problems with taking in air when I drink or eat. The first two weeks were hard for me. Lots of pain/discomfort. Now I'm about 2 1/2 mos out from surgery and this rarely happens. Just hang in there. It will get better!
