allyf24 0 Posted December 22, 2011 Alright... I am just 22 days post op and I have been painless for the majority of the recovery and I KNEW it was too good to be true! Starting last night I noticed slight pain/tenderness on the left side of my port (port is located just right of my belly button). Of course it doesnt hurt until I put some pressure on it and move about a finger tip away from where the port actually is. I have not had my first fill so that is not an issue.... I called the DR and I am currently waiting for a callback. Like I said, the only pain is when I press just left to the site. So should I be freaking out? Only slightly? or not at all?

readytogoforit 172 Posted December 22, 2011 I have had what I would call bulging by the port. doc said that was normal, it doesn't hurt, just feels weird. we do have a foreign object in our body at all!! I always have a list of questions for the doc. mine is so good, takes the time to answer each question! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2bSMALLER 28 Posted December 22, 2011 I would believe that's the scar tissue forming .. I have never heard of the port being so low.. My port is left side just below the end of my rib cage .. hmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
