Are Abdominal Cramps Years After Tummy Tuck Normal?

Jess43
Hi: I had a tummy tuck over 10 years ago, I have gained about 10-15 pounds after my TT, but my stomach for the most part still remains flat. My question is: are having cramps still common years after TT? I get random cramps whenever I exert myself as far as abdominal exercises, sneezing extremely hard or after sex. My stomach tenses for a minute or two with a sharp cramp and once I stretch and breath it out, the cramp is usually gone within 1-3 minutes, rarely does it last longer. Is this normal
