When does the pain start easy up?

I'm sure you know the everyone is different! However, I never really had much pain as I did soreness. I use to get stiff ( still not as much now) if I lay or seat in the same position too long. When I was in the recovery at the hospital my pain was a 6 and it was down hill from then. When I was d/c my pain was like a 4 and by day 4 or 5 was I two and now 0. I am 10 days out and make over 10,000 steps twice this week and avg. about 6,000 the other days. I do everything lift, dance, walk, sometime forgetting I just had surgery. Give yourself time and do as much as you can. listen to your body but I believe the more you move the less you feel and the faster you heal!!! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

How are you doing now?

It does...little by little, everyday gets better! The more active you are, the faster you will feel better. Just a short walk 3 times a day will help you tremendously! Then when you start soft foods, take a short walk after each "meal", that helps a ton too! Good luck!

I found at about 6 days, I'd turned a corner, but everybody heals so differently. It was like it went from pain to only hurt/discomfort. Every day got easier.

I'm still be having some stomach discomfort. Lots of cramping.

Yes that's what I having less pain a lot of discomfort. My stomach is cramping a lot.

Once discomfort started I used a heating pad and never took my brace off. It gave me great relief and I felt 100 percent better about a week after surgery.

I had my surgery yesterday and the gas pain is awful ... I hope it eases up soon, the gas x strips aren't helping either [emoji17]

Bella, walking helped me the most with gas pains. Move when you can...omg, I burp so much when I'm walking, but it felt so much better!

Wait until u fart. .great feeling lmao
