After surgery...: If the surgery was just recent and you cannot pass gas at all and in pain you need to go to the emergency room right now. This could be something very dangerous and without directly giving you an exam I cannot make a guess. Don't wait please, go right away.

I had hiatal hernia repair on Wednesday along with bypass surgery. How long does the gas or acid reflux last. I have been drinking now and belching and I thought this was instant relief. The belching occurs when I swallow. Its all in my collarbone ?
