Severe Pain After Liposuction and Tummy Tuck?

Mother in pain
I had a full Tummy tuck and Liposuction about eight days ago and am experiencing severe pain. The pain feels like needles are poking me in the stomach and it also feel like electrical shock. Are the muscles attempting to reconnect? Are the nerves attempting to reconnect? The pain doesn't really hurt it just feels like firecrackers inside my stomach.
