Possible Complication?

[cpatx 0]

I am 3 weeks post op. I stopped taking pain medicine after a couple days and have had no issues. I bent over today to pick up something off the floor and felt a very sharp pain in my upper right stomach area. It's very tender if I press on the area. Is this normal because of healing, or am I having a complication? Did anyone experience this?

During the first month after surgery, I remember sharp pains if I moved strange sometimes. After surgery, I was on blood thinners for a little over a week. This caused me to bruise easily. So I was black and blue for almost a month and this bothered me more.

If the pain is very severe and persistent, you might want to check with your surgeon's office.
