pain and burning around one lap incision

to give some details, i had my lap rny on monday, nov. 10th. i am doing wonderful no problems, minimal soreness. until tonight. i brought my dog inside and was hanging her leash on the hook by the door and turned my upper body less than 45 degrees to push the back door shut and BAM! instant pain and burning at one of my lap insicion sites. i just said all that so it is known that i wasn't lifting or doing anything i wasn't supposed to. but anyway, it continues to hurt intensely with certain movements and it is sensitive to the touch around the insicion on the skin (not the actual stapled wound). my question is, do they staple down into the muscle when closing these port holes? cause maybe i pulled it underneath the skin. this is what it feels like. also, i know someone recently posted about this but, of my six insicions this one on the right is dimpled, pulled down like a two inch dent. is this a sign that it might actually be stapled to something deeper under there? and that i might have ripped it a bit? very curious and since it is the middle of friday night i will have to wait to call doctor on monday since i don't think this qualifies as an emergency. let me know anything, thanks.
