How long does shoulder pain last after laparoscopic surgery?

I had an ectopic pregnancy back yesterday and the worst pain I feel is pain in the shoulder of the intra-abdominal gas used for flying the air in the stomach during surgery. If anyone had laparoscopic surgery and post-op pain in the shoulder, how long to work?

    Two to three days, then it should go away. It is a matter of all the gas seeping out. Bare with it, I know it is very uncomfortable. I have had 12 in my lifetime. Have someone rub your back starting from the top and kinda pushing downward, it will help move the gas out of the upper area.

    Feel better!

    Hi
    I am a general surgeon
    That is a wrong idea about the pain reason. This pain is causedof streaching the diaphragm and it’s nerve (pherenic nerve). Certainly it will go after 2-3 weeks.
    Do not worry about it
    Do not hesitate u self if u have another question

  3. When I read your words ‘life is really a seamless mile’, I thought of driving a fast car or travelling on a speeding train. It’s an exhilarating experience, but 1 may get carried away! What will 1 see next on one’s journey – a pile of litter, a scrapyard, a beautiful wood?
