7 years ago I had a full tummy tuck. About 3 months ago I started having a sharp burning pain right above my belly button. It would come and go at all different times. I went to see my Gastro had a ultra sound done, they said everything looked good. The Dr. told me the pain sounds like it’s scar tissue from my tummy tuck. I never even thought of that. The pain is getting worse, a burning stabbing pain and hurts most to stand up straight. What does this sound like??
