Bloated post op

[cathhomer]

Hi

I had my laparoscopy a week and a half ago now for endometriosis

My stomach is still very bloated it looks and feels massive does anyone know if this is normal to still feel and look bloated after this amount of time post surgery?

hey @cathhomer - I think it's pretty normal - I was super bloated for about 2-2.5 weeks and it started to go down gradually after that

I’ve had two laparoscopic surgeries and was bloated for a few weeks after each, the trapped wind pains were awful! Heat pads and warm drinks helped move things along x

I had mine 13 days ago and I’m still bloated but it has gone down a little. I find it’s gone down a bit in the morning but swells a little more by the evening, after moving around a bit more. I think it’s normal to be bloated for a few weeks after. Heat and mint tea have helped me!
