Surgery For Umbilical Hernia, Hysterectomy, Liposuction & Abdominoplasty. Abdominal Scan Done. Any Advice?
Hi Doctor! - I'm angelina. last October i underwent surgery for umbilical hernia, hysterectomy , liposuction & abdominoplasty [tummy tucking] . Just 3 months after these operations [done in one day] due to consistent pain i was advised to undergo ultrasonography of the abdomen in july '13 wheren the report states:epigastric hernia & illdefined soft lesion in the umblical region which i fear must have increased by now. kindly suggest. thank you.
Hello , thanks for your query . As your ultrasound suggests that you have an epigastric hernia and an ill defined soft lesion in the umbilical region which could suggest an incisional hernia following the operations. I would suggest you to consult your surgeon who can evaluate you and plan the further management - surgery at the earliest . Thank you.
