After appendicitis surgery, there are hard lumps in the wound where the stitches are removed. It is normal in the process of wound recovery. Generally, it will obviously improve after 2~3 months. If the wound is red and swollen, it is considered to be caused by secondary infection. It needs to be debrided again and treated with anti-inflammatory treatment.
