Walk around a little bit, I was done on the 12th and I've been getting a little pain this week near my port which I didn't have last week at all. If the walking doesn't help try a heat pack. But if it still persists maybe contact your doctor.

I was banded on May 14th, I've had left sided abdominal pain since the surgery. I called my doctor today and he said this pain is normal and it's due to instruments they use to move your muscles out of the way for surgery. So, it's probably no big deal but you still may want to ask your doctor anyway.
