What should I do if the wound becomes inflamed four months after hernia surgery?

Patient's question:

Four months after the surgery, there were noticeable pus bumps on the wound

Doctor's answer:

In your case, after the wound heals, the scar at the wound site generally takes about half a year to soften. The patch inside needs to undergo a long period of integration with the surrounding tissues, and this sensation will gradually improve. You can gently massage or undergo physical therapy, avoid heavy lifting, and pay attention to rest.
