Is my pain almost 3 months after Liposuction still considered normal? (Photo)

I had Luposuction of the stomach, back and side flanks in 11/2015. I had about 7000cc's removed & I still have A LOT of discomfort and sometimes full on pain! It's mostly my lower back and side flanks, they feel very tight when moving. When I do move it feels like a burning stretching feeling! There is still some swelling but not too much.. My back also is very hot to the touch and sweats a a lot so I'm just wondering if this is still part of the healing process, or if I should be concerned?
