I'm 10 days post op and have suffered chronic wind pain since day 2. Any ideas what's best to relieve it and how long it might last please?
Hi Donna, I'm 8 weeks post op and still have it. I've started taking charcoal tablets they are supposed to help. Google them. Also peppermint tea is good. A friend said windeez are good but haven't tried them. Good luck, it will get easier X
Hi. I was told to get some buscopan in for after my op. Not had op yet so can't say if it works but could be worth a go ?
Yip buscopan work for me too , lots of water and peppepper mint tea . I went to my GP and also gave a urine sample and I had a urine infection so have that checked too . I stil have some bowel pain by has DEFO eased off. Remember your exercises too that helps . Am now 8 weeks post op

I found peppermint capsules to be brilliant. Never had wind pain again after taking them religiously from day 1 post op. Took them for about two weeks just to be sure
Hi Donna
You need oil of peppermint, two or three drops in a glass of water a few times a day and you should be sorted hopefully.
