Bump on surgical scar

I have a bump on one end of my biggest scar. It sort of looks like a pimple. Has anyone else had this? What should I do? TIA

I did when I had lapband surgery. I was told it was an internal stitch that was not fully dissolved and trying to surface. It did look like a small pimple. It went away on its own, but you might call your doctor if you are concerned and it doesn't go away.

Thank you!

I have the same thing right now. It's annoying me. I can't wait till it goes away.

I have that as well. It's one of my battle scars ;)

Hopefully they will go away!

I just had a tummy tuck and on one of the biggest scars from my sleeve 7 months ago she said there was a small hernia under neath so if not painful it could be that.
