Pain under main incision 7 weeks post op...

[Mytimenow17 99]

It feels like a bruise, but can’t see one. It feels like it’s inside and not on the surface. It had quit hurting a few weeks post op, but has started hurting again. Anyone else experienced this?

Please see your surgeon. I haven't had my surgery yet but have had two other stomach surgeries. With one I ended up septic and almost died. The other which was a gallbladder removal one of the small incisions got infected. It was like there was a hard lump under the incision and it got a bit swollen. Antibiotics and pain meds took care of that one.

Thank you! Glad you are okay! And best of luck with your surgery!

Could that be some bowel movement pains? I had some strange inner pains myself for a couple of days on my 3rd week, but those are gone with some substantial bowel movement

Maybe?? It felt like a bruise under the skin. But the pain is gone now after using a Pain patch last night. Now I’m stressing over a lump I found in my breast a couple of days ago. My Dr. wants me to have another mammogram, but they can’t get me in for another mammogram and ultra sound until Tuesday. I just had a mammogram done in August. :-/
