Full description? Q?: You already shared a complex past history. I'm glad you survived 2 surgeries for RCC. I'm not certain of what you are describing now - lumps in the location of the incision for the surgeries? - but if you have concerns about your recovery, you should either (1) talk to the surgeon who performed your (most recent) operation or (2) use HealthTap Prime to share pictures & go over a plan. Good Luck!
