Hard Lump Post Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Posted: 07-23-05 20:15pm
Has anyone had trouble with a hard mass
developing underneath an incision? I have
one underneath one of my incisions...It
has changed over the past 2 wks....I am 2
wks post op....The soreness is not as bad
as the beginning but seems to be
returning......I know I need to probably
see the Dr. But I saw on day 5 and he
said it was because I bled some and he had
to put stitches in...It is more like boil
underneath the skin now..I'm afraid it
could be an incisional hernia anyone had
one of those....Any info. Is greatly
appreciated....Sherri :?:

It could just be scar tissue or the
stitches under the skin. If it is oozing
or if it gets bigger and causes alot of
pain I would definately see the Dr. I had
my gb removed the end of march and I have
a small lump under the skin in the
incision between my rib cages and the Dr.
Told me it was just scar tissue and not to
worry about it.
