Upper abdomen bulge
Hi
I had undergone laparoscopic belly button hernia surgery few years back. Post that I am observing upper abdomen bulge on the same place where the upper incision had taken place.
I asked the doctor who performed the surgery and he said it is fat accumulation from the nerve that passes behind the incision.
If you can help by telling if it is harmful and how can this be corrected, it will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Gaurav
