Really painful burps since my band was fitted

Signs and symptoms
1

I've had my band fitted for 6 days now and since then I have been getting really painful burps regardless of whether I have just had liquid or not... they are so painful. Is this normal? If so has anyone got any tips? x

Hi

This could be the remaininggas escaping from when they pumped you full of during the op x

I hope so and I hope it goes fast because it is really hurting lol x

Yes it was very painful for me aswell! Give it a couple of days and it should go!

I used windeze from boots x

Hi Louzo88. Try pepperment cordial, it works like a treat, it eases all the trapped gas pains i.e. painful burps, aching shoulder etc

all good advice - windeze peppermint tea - try windmilling your arms too ( sounds weird but it did help) or rocking slowly back and forth trying to get wind up - bit like when winding a baby - and of course the back rubs off someone if you can x  It will get better soon x
