Stinging pains in 2 wounds 1 week post op

Hi Catherine

Yes let me reassure you, the stabbing like pain your experiencing is normal early days as this is generally were your port is positioned so it is to be expected that you would be feeling more pain around this area.  Obvious you need to be observing the area and if any other symptoms i.e. additional swelling additional redness – ouzing wounds – high temp flare up I would always advise that you contact your provider to book in for a nurse review to get checked out.

Hope your on the mend soon and take things easy
