Asked By:Forceful221810 in Linden, Pennsylvania

Full tummy tuck and liposuction 1 year ago in occasionally get pinches and random pain post op but the last few days I have had a burning stinging pain in the left lower abdomen that comes and goes. It doesn’t feel any different than the other side, it is soft when I push on it. Could there be a problem?
