Belly button pain and swelling

[bellabloom 2,467]

Anyone have swelling, pain, and a hard distended lump around their belly button post surgery? I'm about one week out. Thanks!!

Sounds like a hernia call your doc

Is this behind an incision? If so, it's a stitch and will dissolve in time.

I have discharge and a nasty sore. I called doc and he said it's probably a stitch that's not dissolving I'm 16 days post op. There gonna check it out in a few days

I have bellybutton pain but no lump.... Sounds like a hernia but it could be nothing. Definitely let your doc know. He can do a quick ultrasound.
