I just started getting pain two weeks after gastric sleeve. Is this normal?

Question

Wiljon W. Beltre, MD · Answer

Where is your pain? Right or left upper sides?  Is it constant? does it comes and goes?  Are you having fever with the pain?  These are important questions.  A lot of my patients have pain two weeks after the sleeve and a lot of the time is nothing major.  Check with your surgeon.

Guillermo Alvarez, MD · Answer

If this pain wasn't there and after 2 weeks appeared I would check with your surgeon. If this pain is accompanied by shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, left shoulder pain, etc seek medical attention just to make sure all is well. I hope this helps. warm regards, Dr. Alvarez
