Hey all, haven't been on here since the site evolution... I am 9 months postop and noticed in the last 2 days an unusual bump on my most prominent scar (right above bellybutton) when I felt it itching. Is this bad? Kinda concerned. Pic attached. Thanks

I agree, it looks like an ingrown hair. I would pop it and put peroxide on it a few times a day. If it doesn't get better, go to the doc. With things like MRSA, these days, you can't be too safe.
