Guest guest Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 NK, If you are newly post-op, it is not uncommon to have pain in the shoulders, especially from some of the gas that they use to pump you up in lap surgery still present in that area. It should pass. You might consider taking some Tylenol to ease the pain. --Steve (P.S. But, this is a " Graduate " list, for 1+ year post-ops, so maybe this was not the issue, or maybe you were writing about a surgery in addition to WLS.) >what to do about the pain in the shoulders >after surgery. i had a lap surgery and >not doing to bad but i have pain in the >shoulder area ---- is this normal ??? and >what should i do about it ??? >thanks so much >NK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 Isn't that gas? If so, I think just walking is the best cure. in NJ ********************* > Meant for list: > > Subj: Re: [pain > Date: 12/17/2003 8:09:21 AM Eastern Standard Time > From: my4girls@w... > To: DisDog@a... > > what to do about the pain in the shoulders > after surgery. i had a lap surgery and > not doing to bad but i have pain in the > shoulder area ---- is this normal ??? and > what should i do about it ??? > thanks so much > NK > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
