I have an old band...I just got a small fill one week ago. Now my port is...well...burning. Not all the time, but intermittently. The port is not red but it feels a little warm (paranoia??). No fever and I feel fine otherwise... Any ideas?

i would make a call into your dr - could very well be an infection that should be treated ... or just a tender port from the fill. if it lasts through the wkend, i'd have it checked out.

I wouldn't take any chances. Call the doc.

Thank you everyone- I will call tomorrow. It's still been "twanging" me today every now and then.
