How can I treat spasms after tummy tuck?

puma1003
I had a tummy tuck done almost 2 weeks ago. I have noticed the past 4 days I have had muscle spasms on my abdominal wall (very painful). Is there anything I can do to ease the pain? I tried walking, massaging my abdominal area to no avail! Is this part of the healing process? PLEASE HELP!!
