Hello all!
I'm 3 weeks out from surgery and have a question about the port site. Is it supposed to protrude just a bit from your stomach? That area always feels warmer then the rest of my stomach also. I had to have a hematoma removed day after my surgery. A lot of blood had accumulated so had to have it drained. I was wondering if this has anything to do with the protrusion . Thanks for any thoughts on this question!
