Exam needed: This symptom warrants an examination by your surgeon and appropriate tests and scans will be ordered with special attention to the site of your previous surgery. If fever,chills, or sweats are present an abscess would be a possibility. In any event I believe your surgeon would want to be informed of your symptoms.
