Hi,
You may possibly have a small hernia associated with your surgery. This is a gap in the abdominal wall. When you sneeze, you are putting pressure on the surrounding muscles and trapping a small amount of fatty tissue in the abdominal wall.
I suggest you see a doctor who will be able to make a diagnosis by examining you.
