Paraumbilical hernia repair surgery

Hey guys,
I've recently had a paraumbilical herniw repair surgery. It has now been nearly 2 weeks post op.
My stomach is still very swollen and right part of the stomach I have no sensation and feels very hard. The area I have very limited sensation and is very hard is where I believe majority of the hernia was.

They did add a plastic mesh as my hernia was over 2cm in size. I think this is the reason why they did the keyhole on 4 parts of my stomach.

I have had keyhole of four parts of my stomach and just below my belly button I have a 4cm dissolvable stitch which is I believe the hernia was.

I am just wondering if having no sensation is very normal 2 weeks post operation of the repair surgery and when will my stomach feel normal again cos it's very odd looking and feeling very hard
