Pain Again, Like When First Out

So after 2 weeks out, I decided to clean out my closet. An activity that took me 3 hrs. No heavy lifting. When I was done, the area around my biggest incision started to hurt. Like when at beginning. Feels so tight and tender. The pain has continued a day after. My PA had worned me that when people become more active, the muscles under start hurting. Its REALLY tender. I have my 2 week pre op appt Wednesday. Should I call before then, wait? Should I be concerned? Any one experienced the same?

I am almost two months out and still, when I overdo it, I get some pain. Not like you are experiencing, but I can feel a twinge in my incision site. I have also heard about pain coming back after it has been gone for a while, just out of the blue.

I hope you feel better quick!

Maybe going to the Dr. wouldn't hurt. Eventhough you weren't lifting anything, it's possible to have popped a staple from stretching, maybe reaching for something in the closet. Hope everything goes well and feel better soon!

At two weeks out I had the same pain. It is part of the healing process. After having the pain for 4 days I went to my PA. She said it was normal. I took a Tylenol and the next few days were better. I had to wear a girdle to help ease the pain, but it finally went away. That tightness and tenderness when I moved a certain was terrible. Happy to report no more pain!
