6 weeks post op and still in pain

I'm 6 weeks post bypass tomorrow and am still getting quite a bad pain every now and then on my left hand side near to one of my incisions.

I have my 6 week check tomorrow but wondered if anyone else was still in pain this far out? It might because I have started doing household things again like emptying the dishwasher etc.
 
I'm 3 weeks out and I'm still getting pain around my largest port wound. I think I also have some nerve damage around it too, as I have a large numb spot in the same area, which is quite hypersensitive to pain.
 
Could it be trapped gasses still from your op? I had bad trapped gas (for any pre-oppers they pump it into you during op to help move 'bits' about). Try I cup of peppermint tea. I personally found it disgusting but it worked! I was willing to try anything! My pain was always in left side too and by my ribs.
