Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

from the description given by you, it seems that you are having port site infection. Presence of pain and redness point towards the diagnosis of infection.
I would suggest you to consult your operating surgeon at earliest for further assessment and management.
Take Care
