You can try Gas-X but I've mostly heard that walking is the best way to break up the gas. Feel better!

I walk every hour and thank you! It's just when I drink it hurts until I burp


I am having the same problem. Seen I dr yesterday for post op appointment he told me to make sure I'm sitting straight up when drinking. I've been sitting in a recliner drinking water. So now I sit up while sitting. Take smaller sips and I've started walking. I hate walking but I've really seen a difference in the gas pain since I started. Me and my husband can walk a mile now. I also take dulcogas. It's chewable gas tablets. Hope it gets better for you.

I had the same thing for a week post op. I used gas ex strips, they dissolve on your tongue. I had to sleep sitting up on the couch bc it was worse to try to lay flat. Walk walk walk. Heating pad. It just has to reason and pass through. Nothing really "got rid" of the pain though. I can promise you though that it will go away and you'll be soooo happy once it does.

I can't find the dissolvable strips but I got some chewable one... Thank you


Gas drops, like you'd give a baby, helped me. But more than anything was walking. It really is the best thing you can do for many reason.
