Bulging on the right side of my abdomen (near belly button) above belly button pinching pain when exercising 10mo post (Photo)

tummyproblems
I originally received lipo when I requested a tummy tuck. They told me my excess skin from 2 c-sections should go back to normal. It didnt and i was left with skin still. 10 months later i had gotten a full tummy tuck with muscle repair. I waiting to assure it wasn't normal swelling from healing but i always get this pain above my belly button when i use the muscle and bulging on the right side. This occurs often. Some days im flat others its really deformed and big.
