Pain beneath incision

I am 31 days post-op now. Started exercising since few days, in postures of exercises that contract abs, I feel pain beneath the larger incision that is at my belly button. Its not right below incision, but bit to right of it, but I feel the pain is related to this incision.

Any sleevers has experienced anything like this.

I wasn't cleared to do anything abdominal until I was cleared to do weights at the 6 week mark, but for about the first 3-4 weeks I had pain in a similar spot. Freaked me out a bit, until the surgeon explained that they come in at an angle and the "inside hole" wasn't in the same place as the "outside hole".

Still worth calling the doc and seeing what they say, just in case something weird is going on! Good luck to you :)

Actually I had what sounds like the exact same pain...used to bother me a little bit when I did some of my walking. I did bring it up to my surgeon, and he did tell me to keep an eye on it and let him know if things change or it gets worse...then what happened was the more active I got, the more it went away.

I would say be sure to mention it to your surgeon, but if it's the same as my instance, my guess is that it should get better with time.

Best of success to you!!
