Post Op: lump at incision site
I am nearly two weeks post op and have noticed a small lump in the area of one of my incisions. The area is bruised from surgery. It is tender to the touch. I'm not scheduled to go back to the doctor until my 6 week check up. Has anybody had anything like this? I'm not sure if I should call the doctor or just keep an eye on it.

Re: Post Op: lump at incision site
yes,many of us have had that. Usually normal scar tissue. It goes away after a while. If it gets red, inflamed, or starts discharging, call your doc.
Happy healing.

Re: Post Op: lump at incision site
You are so early in your recovery I would say yes, if it concerns you call the doctor. Don't feel badly about calling. This is what they get paid for. If it's sore, call. You want to make sure there isn't an infection brewing there.
