Appendectomy scars still hurt, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Appendectomy: If the scar is still hurting it really depends on the time from surgery. Scar pain after surgery for two to three weeks is normal. If you are months out then you need to contact the surgery and make sure there is no infection or other possible problems.
