Hello. I am 25 years old guy. I had a laparoscopic appendectomy few days ago. Now I can feel bump/lump like under my incision scar, after suturing. I feel this bump only at one scar. So it is normal or I should consult my surgeon?

Hello, Its normal for induration etc during healing period the scars take upto 6 months to settle. If any thing is elevated above the skin may indicate tendency for hypertrophic scar or keloid in that cases early intervention will help reduce it. Consult your surgeon.
