I have had some of that and they told me to use cocoa butter and firmly massage the area. It went away after a couple of weeks. Also if it hurts to lay on your side try rolling up a small soft throw blanket and tuck it under you tummy to support it. It is pulling against the scar tissue from surgery. These things have helped me. I hope they help you.
