Have Pain In The Operated Area. Had Kidney Removed Through Davinci Surgery Procedure Earlier. Why Can It Be?

I had surgery July 30th of last year. Had my left kidney removed through the davinci surgery procedure. My incisions healed up to look like bullet holes. My doctor said that's normal because I'm fair skinned. Now I'm laying in bed and I twist and my bottom incision started to hurt bad. Never has done it before. It even hurts to the touch. Is it possible that I opened the wound up inside? I just don't want to bread internally.

Some times scar tissues at incision sites undergo inflammation and redness. Take brufen 400 mg twice daily after meals for 3 - 5 days and apply local antiseptic/anti inflammatory cream to the site. It should subside or else see your surgeon
