Has this happened to anyone?  I fell about 3 weeks ago I tripped and I landed on my stomach.  I brusied right where the port is an is just starting to go away now.  It doesn't hurt and I don't get pain but I get a weird feeling like i can feel it but it's not painful.  It didn't effect eating or anything.  I am just not sure should i go to the Dr or that it's just taking a while for my stomach to get back to normal.

That happened to me and the doctor said sometimes the scar tissue can move and cause a bit of pain or I could have bruised the muscle so it would still hurt. Up to you maybe you can just call and leave a message or email the doctor?

I agree with Mell just give the surgeon a call to ease your mind. It is probably nothing but that way you will know for sure.

I play vball 3 X a week and I dive on the floor every night, my port is obvious and sticks out bc I have a very flat stomach. I've been doing this 5-6 times a night 3 nights a week, you have nothing to worry about.

Someone once posted to say he had asked his doctor if he could do kick boxing. Doc said might hurt if he got direct kick but would do no harm.

Thanks everyone it doesn't hurt and I think it just felt really weird because I fell on the port when the edge of the track.  Just my clumsy ass self lol!!! I appreciate the advise.
