Had Pyloric Stenosis. Have Painless Spasms On The Surgical Area. Spasms Are Fierce. Is This The Cause For Concern?
I had pyloric stenosis as a newborn. With the surgery to correct it. Im 28 now, male. Im having pretty constant but painless spasms in this area (below ribcage on right side, mid clavicular, right over the old stenosis surgical site) . Started two weeks ago shortly after rwcovering from the flu. Its painless but the spasms are fierce!

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The painless spasms in the area of surgical incision is likely to be due to a small nerve fiber involvement in the scar tissue . It is difficult to stop these spasms without a surgery.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
