BandOnTheRun

I'm a little confused by your numbering, is the incision you're talking about the largest one? If so, then that's the incision directly over your port. It is normal for it to be a little sore and bumpy for awhile since there is a foreign object under there. The time to get concerned is if the area becomes inflamed, feverish, oozing, or bleeding because those are signs of infection.

yes it is the largest one so I guess it is the port - although I thought the port would be more to the side. I guess that also explains why I can sleep on my side with no pain. Thanks for reply.

Hey everybody - My first post. I must say lurking around this forum and hearing the success stories and positive attitudes gave me the extra push I needed to get banded.

I fell a lot better today than earlier in the week and actually went back to work 3 days post-op (i have a desk job).

My incisions seem to be healing fine but I do have one concern -

Looking down at my incisions from my perspective , the third incision from the left is sore and lumpy between incision 3 and 4. Can anyone explain why? I dont want to call the doctor just yet.

Thank you very much.
