Lower stomach protruding - Has my muscle repair come undone? (photos)

bigblueyes76
had mini TT in 9/2018, Full TT revision 10/2020. At 2.5 months PO I felt a burning to side of belly button. Dr said was fine I was doubled up in sutures, told me to compress. 2wks the feeling went away but my lower stomach has been protruding. told me I won't be flat flat, seems to much for having had MR. How can I know for sure it has come undone? CT/ultrasound i want to know by images for concrete answer. thought when MR fails its painful but learning that's not always the case. Help!
