Default burning at scar

I have had this burning at the top part of my scar for 2 days. Last night I decided it feels more like bee stings. I dont see the dr until the end of June. Has anyone else had this? Dont know if its just normal or something else. thanks

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Is is just sensation (pain) or is there anything in the area--redness, swelling, etc?
In any case, call your surgeon and ask, better to be safe than sorry.

Yep- sometimes I still have it on the left lower scar. In the morning when I get out of bed fast I feel it the most- burning little stabs on that scar. Check it out, but it's probably just part of the healing process- especially if there is no redness or swelling.
