How do I know if I tore my muscle repair after an abdominplasty?

Anamom1166
I had a full abdominplasty with muscle repair 13 days ago and yesterday I caught my daughter falling off the bed and I felt a tight burning sensation and today I am so sore and still experiencing the burning sensation. Is it possible I tore my muscle repair? How do I find out?
