Adhesions where drains were?

I have an adhesion or something where one of my drains was, in my mons.  Its a scarred area that is being pulled in and creates a deep divot in my mons.  Anyone else have something similar?  Anything I can do to get rid of it?  Yet another area that makes me feel completely deformed now...

Sounds more like a dog-ear than adhesion as adhesions are usually internal.
Speak or email with your PCP/PS to verify.

It is not an area of protrusion.  It is where the scar has fibers internally that are pulling it in, so it creates what looks like a divot (it looks like a belly button on my mons).  I can feel it pulling.

It's probably scar tissue.  I had a spot on my scar line that was puckered and pulled.  Over time, it "released" and went smooth.  I can still feel a little more hardness under the skin where the drains were, but it gets better every week.  Just keep massaging it or roll a marble over it to break up the scar tissue.

How far are you from surgery? I had something similar where my drains were in my thighs. Oh I was upset at the "puckering" and then it went away and they lay flat... It did take a few months. I am just at 6 months out.

I have the same thing. I'm not happy about it either. But I am only 8 weeks out, so I am hoping it will smooth out over time as others have said.
