incision pain driving me crazy

Hi I,m almost 4 wks after opp an today i woke wit terrible pain around incision area,, its feel,s very, very tender an sore between navel and incision.i started nurofen this morning so waiting for them to kick in,,,any one out there wit this pain?

I have had some funny pains and all around the incision feels almost like a burn now. It is not red at all, it is just really sensitive if I touch it. I put Bio-oil and Aquaphor on it. I am not sure if it is from the healing process or if it left over from the steri strips that were on for so long. Sometimes I get a sharp pull in the navel. I am hoping this is all normal healing. I was three weeks from my surgery this past Friday.

I hope you feel better!

I have similar incision pain, mostly on the right side and really bothers me when I turn on my ride side while laying down. Motrin does help, but also wondering if this is normal. I assume internal healing is still a work in progress.
