Lump Under My C Section Scar
The only way to know for sure if you have scar adhesions is to get checked out by your doctor.
Lump under my c section scar. I finally saw a general surgeon and will be getting it removed probably in august. Eventually they did an op where the lump was and i was told after a biopsy that it was endometriosis. I have a internal lump to the left side above my c section which is painful when i push on it i also have a lump kind of in the middle of my c section scar that you can see it raised up and its a little red.
After surgery perhaps not immediately but in the weeks thereafter it s possible to develop what feels like a hard lump beneath your rehabilitating incision scar. At first it was very small less than 1 inch in diameter but it has been growing steadily and now is about 4in x 2in extending towards my hip bone. Here we ll get into the particularities and traits of these lumps why.
This was my 4th c section and i never had this in my prior ones. I had a lump under my scaring from first c sec and took the docs ages and lots of bothering them to do anything about it. It s probably endometrial tissue near your c section scar.

Thank goodness the surgeon i saw knew about this my obgyn wasn t familiar with it. The c sections were 7 and 5 years ago but i first noticed the lump about 18 months ago. Though the following signs are a pretty good indicator that something isn t right.
The lump can vary in size. The body produces more of a protein called collagen as part of the healing process. You have pain at the location of your former c section incision and the surrounding area there s puckering or dimpling along the scar from your surgery.
