What Causes Breathing Difficulty After Appendectomy?

I just had my appendix removed this Tuesday around 3 pm it s been 2 days since my surgery and I m having troubles breathing a lot. I m trying to walk around but my shortness of breath is really making it hard to go anywhere. I m 16 I don t smoke regularly but I smoke cannabis every once in awhile but I don t think that s the problem. I just wanna make sure that this is normal.

Hi.

It is most probably just the effect of the anaesthesia that is wearing off, don't worry you should be at it in no time.

Best wishes.
