Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms. Considering your recent history of abdominal surgery, I will have a high suspicion of a possible infectious complication related to this. This could be an abscess located in the skin Getting in contact with your treating physician for examination to figure out what the exact cause is would be a great thing to do. This will permit the exact cause and establish a treatment plan.
I hope you find this helpful. I wish you well. Please, feel free to ask for more information if need be. Thanks.
