How To Cure Throbbing Pain Behind The Lapband?
I had lapband surgery in 2010, I was pregnant in 2013 and often felt like my baby was kicking my lapband. In recent weeks I am feeling like a throbbing pain behind my lapband (which feels almost like baby kicks). They happen at random and presently are infrequent, however seeing a doctor right now is impossible because I am traveling and out-of-state. I do not believe I am pregnant because I have had a normal cycle for the past eight months (my baby was born last October).

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain that you are having is likely to be a muscular pain or due to fibrosis in the area. This can be reduced with rest and a hot fomentation in the area.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
