3 weeks post-op and I woke up with a my right side red, tender, and warm to touch. (Photos)

I woke up yesterday morning with a new aching pain on my right hip side. I noticed it's red and within a few hours, it spread a little down my buttock area. I had a Tummy Tuck with Lipo only in the hip area. It's very tender, warm, and irritated. I am just getting over a 4 day flu, but I don't think that would have anything to do with it? Jackson Pratt was on my left side, removed last week. Doctor placed me on Bactrim 2x daily. Is this common? I'm really worried. Thank You!
