Since it has been 3 months wound is supposed to be heeled completely, however their can damge to nerve endings due to surgery which causes pain which is self limiting and there is nothing to worry. If pain is severe or their is associated redness or fever then you should consult surgeon at the earliest
Next Steps
Wait and watch the course of pain and if pain doesn't subsides or keeps on increasing then visit the operating surgeon.
