I haven't asked my Dr about it. Am starting to feel concerned. It's been 5 weeks today from my breast lift and augmentation. The stomach noice is extremely loud prior to but also after eating. Not something I've experienced pre surgery. Please help.
Answer: Stomach gas noises post-operatively Thank you for your question :) It is likely that your stomach is reacting to some of the medications you had post-operatively like the antibiotics and/or pain medications. Antibiotics can alter the normal flora of your gastrointestinal system, and this may take some time to normalize. It is best to follow up with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and have him investigate as well.Benjamin J Cousins MD

Answer: Stomach noises Usually post-op patients have reduced motility in their intestines secondary to taking pain meds. This may be related to that if you recently stopped them. If concerned, then get and evaluation by your surgeon.

Answer: Stomach noise after surgery This is not a common complaint. It may be related to medication you took or are taking, or it may have nothing to do with the surgery. I would ask your surgeon and possibly have a consultation with a gastroenterologist. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda MDpainlessbreastimplants.com

Answer: Post breast augmentation stomach gas noises. I am 5 weeks post op. Loud noise after eating. I have not heard of patients having strange gas noises after an augmentation/lift. Some medications that are prescribed after surgery such as narcotics and antibiotics can cause intestinal discomfort. I would check with your plastic surgeon and/or primary doctor.
