You should contact your surgeon's office and discuss this with them. Be able to give them a clear discription of what your incisions and the surrounding area look like, do they feel "hot" to the touch, get a good temperature reading (before drinking anything hot or cold), what you have been doing (ex. have you been tugging on anything, straining your stomach in any way, etc.), have you been feeling "sick", and any thing else that you can think of. You should be taking showers and not baths at this point. The information you give them helps them determine what to do.
