pain after c section - help

Hi! I my sister had a c section with her first baby because the baby was breeched. Two days after she started to feel pain in her shoulders and neck. She is on day five and has pain. The doctor says it could be air pockets, but they also put her on percusett (not sure about correct spelling). Is this safe? What should she do? what do you think she is getting this type of pain? She also received the epidural, but not sure it that could be causing the pain.

    Gas pains, it's normal. Take some gas x or have her doc call something in. Movement helps.

    Yep, sounds like gas pain. It is pretty common after a c/s. And the Percocet is safe and she should take it. Percocet is the only reason I could function after my c/s. I literally couldn't even move from pain without it.
