Yes swollen a little , I called the office and the nurse said that sometimes the doctor can't tell where she nerve endings are when putting the stitch in the abdomen wall . So that's what's causing my pain. She said unfortunately it will just take longer for this part of me to heal . It really stinks because this has put me out of work a while extra week. I just want to be able to get up and down with no pain . sleeves 9/11.
