5 weeks PO. Pain after long ride in truck

Hi all. Has anyone experienced pain and swelling in PM area after a long car ride? I had to ride in backseat of a truck and I think all the constant jiggling might have irritated the PM pocket. It had been 3 days and it still hurts and there is a lot of pressure especially when I rise from laying down. I called doc today and they said to call tomorrow if not better. Anyone else have their site act up ? The scar is totally closed so I thought it wouldn't be infected but maybe just inflamed tissues. Thanks for any input.

Hi! Some soreness, if you experienced a rough ride in a truck, is not unusual. If you have actual swelling, and/or warmth, streaking at the site, fever, etc., you should definitely be checked. Hopeful Heart

Thanks Hope!

I was instructed to see my family doc and will do so today. The ride wasn't too rough just jiggly for 3 hr each way. I am rather shocked how tender and swollen I got just from the ride. Wish I was a faster healer. Thank for your support.
