tegu surgery

hello All
Our Tegu had some surgery today to try and find out why he is poorly. He is home now and has stitches under his belly from his operation. He is clearly in some pain as when he walks he is walking with his chin on the floor and keeping his belly as far off the floor as possible. He is having real trouble settling down as he lies down for a short time and then gets up again and shifts around etc. Does anyone know if I can do anything or give him anything to make him more comfortable ?:huh:

Did the vet give you any pain meds for him?

nope... he has antibiotics, force feed, 1 drug to stimulate his gut to work and another drug to help make his bowels contract ?
