Get rechecked: You should be fully recovered from your surgery by now. It suggests that there is either something else contributing to your problem, or something is not right with your surgery. Consider being checked, even if that requires a second opinion.

Probably scarring: But consult your original surgeon just to be sure, especially if it getting worse or not improving.
