How to handle wound inflammation four months after hernia surgery

Patient's question:

After four months of surgery, there are obvious pustules in the wound

Doctor's answer:

In your case, after the wound heals, the scar at the wound site usually takes about half a year to soften. The patch inside needs to integrate with the surrounding tissues over a long period of time, and this sensation will gradually improve. You can gently massage or undergo physical therapy, avoid heavy lifting, and get adequate rest. I believe everyone knows that hernia can cause significant harm to men, so it's important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, pay attention to dietary issues—maintain a light diet and avoid foods. Additionally, you can schedule regular follow-up appointments when necessary.
