Hi, just curious if anyone else developed a hematoma after surgery. I have one under my big incision which is slooooowly starting to shrink. My surgeon's PA told me that was what it was (which I sort of had already figured out) and she didn't seem too concerned. I'm not really concerned either, it is just annoying. When I look down, my belly still looks lopsided because of it (my main incision is to the left of my bellybutton). I certainly cannot feel my port under all that, and it is quite sore (like a bad bruise which is basically what it is). I haven't seen anyone mention anything like this on here, so I was just curious if someone had had this and how long it took to go away completely... Thanks!
