Bowling is a sport that requires use of the abdominal muscles. In my practice I asked patients to avoid activity that directly targets those muscles for three months. I would point out that I'm referring my practice so you should follow the restrictions of your surgeon.
I usually tell my patients that they can resume more rigorous exercises, such as bowling, in about 2-3 months after a full abdominoplasty. Please note that every patient is different and it may take some individuals a little longer to get back to their usual routine.
In general you should be able to return to full physical activities by 6 weeks after an abdominoplasty surgery. Your body will let you know if you are ready for this type of physical activity.
I usually ask my patients to refrain from exercise for at least 6-8 weeks following surgeries. Tummy Tuck usually requires this as a minimum even for those who have been active in sports, athletics or exercise prior to the surgery. Most patients find solice in the fact that the outcome will be well worth the brief lapse in their routines. Your surgeon can monitor your recovery and advise when you are ready to return to full activities and sports.
I'm not exactly sure what this athletic creams supposed to do. I doubt that it doesn't harm. Nevertheless, as a courtesy to your plastic surgeon you should check with him or her before use.

There is always some degree of irregularity during the early post operative period. I would not, at this point, be too concerned about it. It is possible that the support garment is causing some infolding of the skin around the umbilicus. Try to adjust the garment and see if...
Planning the way the belly button is inset is as important as planning the incision line during a tummy tuck. Some will look better than others, however your belly button is a bit turned out, and after everything is well healed after several months you just might benefit from a revision.
