| What can I take for gas pains ?
The best thing you can do to “expel” the gas is to get up and move! The combination of the surgery, the anesthesia, the post-op prescribed pain medications (vicodin, percoset, etc.) and not being active SLOWS everything. Drink lots of water throughout the day and keep walking. Over-the-counter (OTC) medications such as Gas-X have been helpful to some people.
