Incision pain several months after surgery?

I’m 5+ months RNY. I’m past my goal at 140lbs. The past 2 weeks intermittently I will get a quick twinge. Not pain just a twinge usually near the incision sites. Maybe 3-4 of the sites randomly. My guess is maybe the nerves that were cut are growing back or that since I’ve lost a lot that the fat padding the sites isn’t as thick so the skin etc is more tender.
Anyone relate to this?

Hmmm. Is it on the surface and like pin needle electric spark sharp? Or is it duller like a knife and deeper? Like almost deep inside?

It’s more on the surface, maybe an inch deep. I also get a very mild discomfort occasionally I think just below the pouch. Usually after eating. This pain is more of a quick zing vs the pouch is more a dull ache or nausea.
