Pain on scar 9 months after mastectomy.

I had a msterctomy (right boob) last year in November and they also removed 2 nodes to chech if it had spread.
The surgery went well and the cancer had not spread.
About 2 weeks ago I started getting pain around the scar tissue. It feels like tightening of 'mucles' around the scar and I get shooting pains on the incision site...
I ve been to the gp, ultasounds done and nothing alarming came up.
I have also started experiencing severe hot flushes where I break into a sweat after a hot flush. I am not on any medication except tramadol for pain.
Has anyone experienced this?
Obviously there is a change in hormone levels, which would explain the hotflushes but not sure if the pain on the scar is related... ***sigh***
