I'm 5weeks out and am experiencing pain on left side of abdomen next to port. Has anyone experienced this?

It is normal to have pain by your port and it will be sensitive for a couple of months.

Thank you...I was kind of worried because I hadn't experienced this before.

port pain comes and goes for me. i can usually pin point a reason by thinking what i did that day. walked to fast, lift something to heavy. use my tummy as a 3rd hand. etc.

I had that also. Now I have to pay attention the rise on my jeans. certain cuts might give me a twinge near my port. I have to make sure they are right at my natural waist or a little lower.

Just try not to overdo. Stretching will also cause pain. Best wishes, Karen..aka..kll724

I get port pain all the time. usually when i use my stomach muscles a lot or bend over a lot. annoying!
