scar tissue

the surgeon went in 4 of the same places and 1 new one. The 4 well those spots feel funny like a ball, do you think that will always be there from the scar tissue? I see my surgeon in 7 weeks so i will ask then but thought i would ask here. Also by belly feels kinda numb, just a little. it is weird.

Probably a little scar tissue and nerve disturbance. As long as they aren't red, oozing or feverish... I hope the hard bumps go away with a little time. You may start feeling little twinges or *****ly sensation where you're numb now as the feeling comes back.

the PT has had me doing a lot of messaging of my knee scar to keep the scar tissue down and not let adhesions form.  That was after it was well closed but I would think the same thing would help your spots.

Panda,

my band doesnt really feel any different. It will tell when I go back to solid foods, im not in a hurry to get there :)

a few months ago I was having terrible abdominal pains and my surgeon said it was scar tissue.  So, he injected into the area and told me to massage the area for 15 minutes 3 times per day for a week to break up the scar tissue and it really worked for a while. IT hurts again and he had told me I could come back for another injection and I think I might try it.  You might set try massing the area 3 times per day to see if it works
