Pulling and soreness 5 months after Tummy tuck and muscle repair. Any suggestions?

listowel
I have soreness around mid line especially after sitting. If I swim or move around I feel a lot of pulling on left hand side of abdomen all the way down. I can only describe it feeling as if I have ( figuratively ) swallowed chewing gum and its scattered and pulling all over the inside of the abdomen. What can this be please ? Sometimes it gives way to burning feeling.
