Bellybutton pain

I was sleeved on 2/4. I have made it thru the surgery pain and the abdominal soreness pretty well but yesterday I started having pain in or behind my belly button. There is no lap site there so it's not like it's a surgical site issue. Has anyone had this problem, did it go away, what is it? Help please.

    I had my follow up today with my surgeon he said there is a stitch that he places to prevent a hernia and that's the belly button pain. I felt a lot better after hearing from him it was normal. Its uncomfortable to say the least but I'm happy to know that it's not a complication.
