Ice is good for inflammation if you use it 20 minutes off and 20 minutes on.

I had revision to rny 2 weeks and getting some pretty bad back pain. I am using heating pad at night with no issues.

I was over doing it id have it on for like a hour falling to sleep with it on

I don't have a gallbladder i had it removed 7 years ago but my surgeon did say i had so much scare tissue it too him an hour to get thru it

Did you guys know that you can still get stones in your bile duct after having gallbladder removed? I had mine out more than20 years ago. My GI recently told me of this.

Matter of fact he said it is likely after about twenty years.

I had no problems after gallbladder removal i did hear u can still get gallstones but i don't have any

Hello, hope you are feeling better. I had my gastric sleeve done on 09/12/19. I had same issue. Went to a chiropractor and said it was muscle spasms and got dome some lidocaine patches and massages. Feel like new again. [emoji1]

So I’m a week out of surgery and I use my heating pad constantly on the large incision area, right/middle belly area. It’s the only area that still aches when I twist, turn, move. Heating pads are bad for this?

No its good for it actually but i was over doing it i was falling asleep with it on and everything
