About an inch below my incision (which is pretty much healed). I don't know how to explain it but it doesn't hurt but it does hurt when my shirt rubs on it or I touch it. The spot is about 2 inch wide in a circle. Not sure if this makes a lot of sense. Any one else have this before? It's the only spot on my stomach that feels like this

I absolutely felt like this. This specific pain seemed to get worse with the passage of time. I asked my surgeon about it, and he pointed out two things: (1) in my case, the largest incision is where my stomach was removed, so there was lots of pulling/tugging there, leading to muscle soreness, and (2) that largest incision was the only place they put a through-and-through intramuscular stitch. He said when the stitch dissolved, the pain would go away, and sure enough, he was right! Right around the third week, no more incision pain or tenderness.
