Panniculectomy

I seen my doctor last week. He said everything is healing good. I asked him about the leg pain but he said he didn't know what it could be. He suggested taking Ibeprophen for swelling and wear leggings because they are tight. I've been doing that a few days now. I still have thigh/leg pain. Even to touch my upper legs with your hands hurt in certain areas. My legs kinda feel like weights...they are weak. Does anyone know what this could be? Should I go see my family doctor? Is this just normal healing?

I will be 50 in March. I was 300 pounds and lost almost 130 in 10 months with diet and exercise. I had a panniculectomy on December 5th. I'm 5 weeks post op today. I had the drains in for 2 weeks....which was brutal! After I had them removed I ended up with an infection which was treated with an antibiotic. My thighs are really swollen still....and they ache a lot. Most of the scabs have fallen off already. I'm still wearing the paper tape on the incision. There is one spot on the incision I've had problems with. I think close to infection. I've been changing the gauze in that area often. Overall I think I'm healing ok. I can't sit in a kitchen chair for any period of time. I don't like the feeling of my tummy tho. I don't like it being touched....at all. Driving is also difficult. I think the pain will be worth it. I see my doctor for a follow up apt on the 17th. I will address my concerns.
