How long will my bloating from appendectomy take to go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Few days: Laparoscopic surgery uses gas to see. Abdominal bloating resolves over a few days. Ileus also can cause bloating. Eat small amounts at first and drink more liquids. Warm heating pad can help a little.
