Dr. Anifat Balogun answered

Specializes in ENT and Head and Neck Surgery

Stomach ache p/surg: Since it is so early after your surgery, i suggest you call your surgeon for their recommendation. It is not uncommon to experience some nausea after surgery. This may be the residual effect of anesthesia and /or medication given to you before, or during, or medication you may be taking for pain control.
