Why am I getting a burning hot sensation around my hips and waist line 9 days after a tummy tuck and lipo sculpture?

Hi! My Name is Gisel I'm 24 yrs old How ever every time I feel like something is wrong with me I always look it up on google, and this website pops up with answers from you Doctor. Now, I recently got a Tummy tuck and Lipo sculpture. I've been noticing I get a really rapid hot burning sensation around my hip/waist line. It hurts so much that I cry. Could it be bcus of the muscles that were sculptured or something. Or is part of the healing process? It's been 9 days since I had the surgery.
