Uncomfortable Hernia Like Swelling In The Place Of Laparoscopic Surgery. Concerning?
Hernia like swelling in area where laproscopic surgery was done to remove cancerous tumor about a year ago. Causes some discomfort when coughing and after eating a large meal. Should I be concerned, will this go away on its own, can it get worse, is there anything I can do like exercise to help this or will it make it worse?

Hello,
Any cancerous lesion has a high chance of recurrence.
Keeping this in the back of your mind you should approach this issue.
Periodic screening and evaluation is a norm post cancer treatment.
History of lump in the same site should be taken seriously.
Consult your doctor for help.
Timely intervention is very important.
