What Causes Pain Around An Umbilical Hernia Surgery Site?
Hi, Sometimes one or two bits of suture material got stuck inside and causing pain. Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated. You can go for an ultrasound scan for further assessment. As of now, you can take analgesics like Tramadol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
