StoneyB Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hi All, The other day, I slowly stretched backwards to help relieve some of the pressure in my back, and felt a "pulling" pain/discomfort in teh general area of my stomach. It wasn't from one of teh incisions. Has anyone else felt anything like this? I am nervous to even stretch these days - I find myself becoming a bit of a hunchback!

Buffalot Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hi, I do exactly the same thing to ease my back and am paranoid that I'm going to pull the port out of its spot or cause some other sort of damage. I need to stretch but am being super careful now after feeling quite a bit of discomfort in the port area. The exercises that give the most relief definitely pull on my port, so I dare not do them. Fingers crossed that I've not caused any damage. Would love to know if anyone has run into problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindsay Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I have the lapband, and my port rubs against my ribs on a very regular basis. There are specific movements I feel discomfort with, because of the rubbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
