Hi - I had surgery on September 15th, all fine except pain. I went back to work last week and had to come early that first day with strong pain cos I think I hunched over my computer and maybe put pressure on the internal wound. Took better care after that so pain wasn't so bad, but last night and today its awful in the middle of the tummy, under one of the wounds. Plus I sneezed and it was like being stabbed. No other symptoms, no inflammation or fever. Still on thickened fluids. Is this normal?

I feel totally unprepared for the level of pain I have had.

I can only speak about me - but in had zero pain ever in my stomach area- the o my pain I had was gas pains in my shoulders and that lasted about a week. I would def go to dr

Pain, no. Discomfort, yes.

Have you seen your surgeon since surgery? I would call and get an appt because you shouldn't have pain 3 weeks out.
