Which are describing seems fairly commonplace. Nevertheless it is not a bad idea to report a new area of pain to your surgeon.
You should be experiencing some different pains still at only 13 days after a tummy tuck. Localization of pain does occur as nerve endings are regenerating and these pains can move from place to place. Address this spot the next visit with your plastic surgeon.
I do not think it is unusual to feel pain like you are describing. In fact, you may feel twinges of pain from the muscle plication for months as your healing progresses. Having said that, it is important that the pain is not caused by an infection or other problem that needs more immediate attention, and for this you should have your plastic surgeon take a look.
Certainly a little discomfort is normal at two weeks post tummy tuck. This is probably just a normal part of your healing, but I have seen a handful of patients (maybe 4 or 5 in 14 years) who developed spasms of the rectus muscle due to the plication. For them I have prescribed muscle relaxants and it seems to help. The down side is that they can make you a little tired.I recommend you ask your Plastic Surgeon about the problem.Good Luck!
Some amount of pain can be "normal" but also can suggest a problem that your surgeon will need to deal with. I would not want to offer false reassurance without enough info. This is an appropriate question, but on that should be directed to your surgeon.
