Get it checked out: The nature of the mass needs to be determined. Scar tissue? Hernia? Lipoma? Lymphoma? See your pcm to start the process.

? incisional hernia: You should have it evaluated. If it is at the site of the old incision and is reducible- that means it goes in when you press on it- it could be ask incisional hernia- but you should definitely have it checked out.
