Ab workout=pain at port site?

:help: I had my surgery about 2 months ago and just recently started an ab workout. My Doc said this was ok, but I have noticed I am having pain near my incision at the port site. I recovered rather quickly and didn't have much pain at all during the whole recovery process. It's not sore like "feel the burn" it's particularly sore right where I feel my port is. It's usually sore for a day or two, and then it's ok again. Am I doing something wrong? I can't just not do an ab workout, so is anyone else experiencing this? Please share your experience....

i remember when i first started doing ab work, my port did get sore several times, but since i kept it up, it subsided. every once in awhile, i'll still get a sore port, but it's usually when i over do it.

if it is really bothersome, i suggest you contact your surgeon.
