I had my procedure done 4 weeks ago. The only problem I am having is, on my right side, I have having pressure, burning, very sensitive to touch, and it feels like I'm being pulled apart. It feels very tight. I can not even lay on my stomach

What can this be?

    Hello Bklyngirl68

    I can't help with this but I would call the doctor.

    I had the surgery 3 weeks ago and doing fine except for diaphragm tightness and some breathing problem which I had before surgery.

    I called the doctors office to ask why and was told it was still healing but get an xRay to make sure no water on diaphragm. I had diaphragm repair. Did you have to have your diaphragm repaired?, they got it to tight and had to go back in and remove a stitch, I was having pain in just one area which was an indication it was too tight.

      I have tightness in the chest which is getting better, was told yeaterday it is the diaphragm, also feels like a very tight Bra.

      I will have the XRAY done Monday or Tuesday just to make sure no water on diaphragm.
