A member asked:
I've had a benign bone tumor removed close to a year ago. the scar isn't gone and i still have swelling. is it normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to examine: A scar will remain at the site of surgery. It is not feasible to know what you consider swelling. Do you have pain at the site? If yes, consult your doctor. If there is no pain, you may just watch and wait.
