My port was tender to lean on something etc. It is normal, and it took quite a while for it to not be tender like that. I wouldn't worry unless it gets hot to touch or red/infected.

that is exactly what i am talking about... when i lean on something or if i have high waisted pants on that rub against it....this is normal to still be having this???...it is not hot and it is only red right across the cut line which all of my incisions still are red..i have a doctors appointment a week from today i guess i will just mention it.

Iam 14 months post op nad I still have port pain on occassion. I think you are normal unless your incision is oozing or swollen & red, hot to the touch.

WOw- i never thought you would still ahve any pain that far out. But i guess they do say it can take up to two yrs for some surgeries to heal completely. Bummer
