I was feeling my incisions as I was bathing and noticed I have a circular type lump underneath. Could it be an ulcer? Am I jus over reacting?

Is it on the biggest incision? I had a lump under my largest incision and asked my doc about it. He said it's where they pulled my stomach out and it is going to be swollen and "lumpy" for a few weeks while it heals.

If it's under a different one it could be just swollen tissue from where they put the scopes through. I wouldn't worry too much unless it bothers you.

Also, and ulcer is inside of your stomach. You would know if you had one, it would hurt when ever you ate or drank something.

Call your doctor. It's likely just scar tissue. An ulcer would burn like hell every time you ate something.
