I have had a constant pain in my stomach around the belly button all day long. Hard to bend over or move too much. Does anyone know what this is? Should I be concerned?

a few questions.
did you eat before the pain?
if so what did you eat?
is it sharp stabbing pain or something else?
are you nauseated at all?

my first guess is gas but you should def call your surgeons office.

Hi Kenya,
I think I felt the pain before going to bed and about 2 hours before bed I had cottage cheese and mashed potato (4 tbsp total). I woke up with the sharp pain in my stomach. No nausea today but I have had stabbing pain in my sides (although not today)

i honestly dont know. can you call your dr's after hours and see what to do? pain sucks, especially when you dont know what it is.

Is the incision you have there red or having any irritation ? Im with Kenya here on this one. Use a gas X strip see if it helps and make a call if you think its necessary.
Is the pain more to the left is the other question I would ask

When in doubt call your doc. Hope you're feeling better soon.

[Kenyar]

hey there. just checking on you. how'd you make out?

[Nejy]

Nope not red or any initation and yes pain is mostly to the left.

Hope you're feeling better, but even if it is better, let your surgeon know about your pain, and figure it out, or put it away for future reference. You're still pretty early out, so checking in with your surgeon is the best option.
