Port site problems

I am 2 weeks post op. I have a softball size lump where my port is. It starts under my breast and goes downward. It makes it hard to bend, twist, sit straight. Feels like part gets caught between my ribs. I know I'm swollen, but this just seems extreme to me. Also I have sharp stabbing pains in my breast on that side at different times of the day.... Any suggestions or anyone else with this issue?

I'm less than 2 weeks post op and don't have any symptoms at my .port. I think mine is below my right rib cage. I agree with Erinsue, call docs ASAP. Good luck!

Fluid pockets can form. Please call your doctor!
