Sore Port Area

Hello fellow bansters!!

So recently I've noticed that sometimes my port area is sore. The way I would describe the soreness is equivilant to drinking 2 big glasses of water and taking a jog immediately afterwards. Cramping is what it feels like. I really felt it after one of my workouts. And its so tender in my port area that I have a hard time standing straight up. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know what causes it? Thanks in advance for your answers.

My gets sore occassionally. Mostly when I'm laying down, it feels like pinching. Don't know if its similar, or even remotely close to what yours is, but I asked my surgeon and he said its the scar tissue in the fascia where the port it attached. He explained it was very normal.

my port hurts when i bend ... I was bending over to tie an elderly ladies shows and it must have pinched or something...very painful..

My port is almost always sore, and worse when I pull it.

I never really felt sore unless I did strong ab workouts. But this past weekend we went on a road trip and sitting in the car for several hours made my port sight very sore. After I got out and stretched everything was felt much better. Wasnt a good feeling.....

Mine is always sore. Especially today... I'm wearing a dress with a high waisted belt and the metal buckle sits right on my port. Oy vey.
