Hi ladies. I had my operation on Wednesday morning. All going ok so far apart from some slight discomfort and burning sensation. The worst part for me has been my stomach and I’ve noticed today I’m coming out in bruising on either side of my ribs. I havent managed to speak to anyone yet at the hospital to see if this is normal or not but I honestly feel like my ribs are broken. (I know they are not but that’s what the pain is like) has anyone else experience this ?
Hi Natalie, I’m 5 days post op and my ribs are bruised too. My nurse said it’s normal it’s due to the trauma of the surgery and sudden weight of the implants. If it gets worse though I would get it checked out. Best of luck with your healing 🙂
Thanks stephanie. Glad to hear I’m not the only one. I thought there was something seriously wrong. Good luck with your healing too. Hope your managing well xx
I’m day 5 now and have practically no pain! Still sore in the mornings as I’ve been in the same position sleeping for a few hours but I can get on with most jobs now I cook and clean etc 🙂 it’s just bruised ribs and bloating now lol xx
