The surgery wound from my perianal pus removal a month ago hasn't fully healed yet and there's a small bump on one side - could that be fat? I attached a picture, how much longer might it take to heal completely and what can I do to help it heal faster so I can get back to normal

Bump may be granulation or fat—keep clean, sitz baths, and recheck with surgeon if healing doesn’t progress.

View allI've been diagnosed with a hernia but I'm really hesitant about getting surgery are there any other effective treatments or lifestyle changes that could help manage it? I'm worried about the risks and recovery time
While hernia surgery is generally recommended, some individuals may be able to manage hernias through lifestyle changes and other conservative treatments, especially if the hernia is small and not causing significant symptoms. These options include dietary adjustments, weight management, exercise, and, in some cases, using a hernia support belt. However, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the best course of action for your specific situation, as hernias can sometimes worsen over time and may eventually require surgery

I had a right side inguinal hernia mesh repair surgery 3 years ago and now I've developed a new hernia on the left side. I'm considering another mesh repair but I'm worried about hernia recurrence after mesh surgery. Does having mesh repair increase the chances of the hernia coming back compared to other types of repairs? What's the likelihood of recurrence with a second mesh surgery?
Second hernia mesh repair is commonly done and recurrence is not necessarily higher with mesh.The success rate is high when done properly.
