Pain at Lap Band Port?

cinclk75
I had the lap band put in 5 years ago. I failed myself big time, I gained all the weight back and some. Lately I've been experiencing pain near the port. Could the pain just be from the added weight? I've starred trying to eat better this week & want to start exercising too.
