I was just cleared to do sit ups and stomache excersizes. Had any one else had an Open RNY. My scar feels a little tight I guess is the best word. I am not going to pu**** but is this common?

I had an open surgery in July.  I felt almost like a pulling or pressure sensation for quite a while.  Be very careful.  I just had surgery for an incisional hernia and I know a lot of other people who got a hernia after an open surgery.  I got mine from straining to use the bathroom when I was constipated.

I had open RNY, open hernia repair, and a tummy tuck... all along the same midline incision.  Yes, it is very common for the incision site to feel tight.  It will probably slowly loosen up, and you can sometimes speed it up a little by gently massaging the area.
