One day post op and home from the hospital walking and sipping liquids pretty well. Intense gas that does not seem to be passing besides a few small burps here and there. Anyone have any tips for the gas? Anyone feel gas on the right side of the upper stomach that runs to the back at times?

I actually never had gas, but I did a lot of walking at the hospital. Over 15,000 steps that day. I have heard walking helps immensely.

Keep walking if you can. Gasx really helped with the gas pain. I also had pain in my stomach and back. It went away about day 4.

I had a really rough time with gas as well. I drank lots of peppermint tea-- that really seemed to help break up my gas!

Thank you so much! I’m on day 4 post op now and the gas x helped a ton along with walking. Heating pads really helped move the gas from my back and rip cage areas:)
