I had an anterior repair on Tuesday and since waking up I have had trapped wind in my upper abdomen, I think I might be constipated and am trying to address this but basically I need to rest but find the only relief I get is walking around the house. Lying down the pain settles under my left shoulder blade or under my bust generally, I burpe/belch a lot.
years ago I was diagnosed with a sliding hiatus hernia but have not had any trouble with this recently. What can I do please.
using peppermint and camomile tea and also gastrocote tablets?
