Hi Thanks for writing your query After going through your suffering, most likely the lump is secondary to fibrosis which occurs naturally at a site of surgery and wounds. Most of the times it dissolves slowly and of its own over the period of months. You may apply thrombophob to reduce it. Take care and I shall be glad to answer any further query.
