Well i have finally had enough and booked myself in to the docs. I'm there at 11.10am.

I got up this motning and where my stitches are there is now a weird long lump. I think it might be scar tissue but i only had the op 3 weeks ago and my stitches still haven't dissolved.

Thing is the lump is going downwards toward my clit (sorry tmi). The cut itself is going across though so i can't understand how its healing like this. I have many scars from a c/section and a massive hip op 5 years ago and i have never had this before.

Its still slightly tender but its still fresh if you know what i mean. Its not painful though.

I just feel so old in my body at the minute.

Has anyone else had something like this after an op?

I just hope its nothing and will go away but i am getting it checked out. I'm also making a list and will go through everything thats been bugging me while i'm there otherwise i will just end up leaving it.

I hope you get on ok at the docs hun, it def sounds as if it needs looking at.. Do you mind me asking what you had done? I've been away for a while and so much has gone on I fell like a newbie again.. maybe I should post in there!

Lol Jenny. I have had a pin put into my pelvis as part of my bone hadn't healed from my last big hip operation.

The cut is in my hair line but its just strange and i have never had anything like this before as i said.

I'm at the docs in the morning! xxxxx
