What does it mean when your pouch swells?

I am over 5 months post-op and I had the open RNY. I recently have been sick with the flu and have been coughing my head off. Now my tummy, up high where my incision is, is swollen and painful. Is this just due to all my coughing or could I have done something to my pouch by coughing so hard? Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks
