Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi. I had a 270 degree (partial) fundoplication 2 yrs ago. I overate a couple of weeks ago & since then, my esophagus has sort of hurt. The pain is fairly dull but where the surgery was done. Could I have damaged the fundoplication? What should I do? (besides eat less) Thanks
As per my surgical experience, partial overeating will not hurt a fundoplication area after 2 years as already there is healing and fibrotic scarring has been taken place.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
