I posted this 2 days ago (approx) and now I show I have never posted anything so I will try this again. I believe I have seen somewhere in these forums someone mention the sunburn feeling after post op. I was wondering if anyone else has felt this before and for how long after surgery.

I am 11 days post op and the area of my lower abdomin and up to my belly button area on the side of the port my skin feels like its sunburned. Its sensitive to the touch of my shirt even. I was wondering if anyone else has felt this and if so for how long?

Thanks for any kind of ideas or confirmation that my body isnt crazy lol

I read this yesterday and there were several comments. Everyone agreed this sounded like and infection... you should see your doctor.

I responded to your post yesterday too. Maybe check the other thread.

I didn't have anything like that. I do have numb areas though.

I responded as well. It sounds like your incision is infected and you need to see your doctor. A 'sunburn' feeling isn't normal.
