I had my GALLBLADDER removed in the Philippines. I had no choice the pain was so bad. Complication followed?

Question

I left the hospital the following day with a large hole that the surgeon did not stitch properly in my opinion with the stapels he used. Subsequently an infection set in treated with BETRADINE Yes IODINE still in use here. I had a very large concave scar that took months to heal and eventually come out to the proper position. However it never stopped growing and i now have a very unsightly mound on my torso that resembles a small breast. with a scab on the top. When in the prone position it falls level but when i cough in this position it reappears as if there is something missing or not healed under the skin making my torso wall very weak. Has anyone else seen or heard of similar complications and if so what is it and what must i do to cure the problem. I am embarrassed to be seen with my shirt off even in front of my girlfriend. Help required urgently.

Answer 1

There could be an infection beneath the skin if it was not dressed properly after surgery (which from what you said, it sounds like). I would suggest talking to your primary care physician about your concerns as soon as possible.

Answer 2

Please evaluate why the discomfort is so undesirable. that's led to with the aid of a gallstone it fairly is caught interior the hassle-free duct, and can't go interior the path of the liver and on via the gadget. you have gotten one stone or many. while the stone gets caught and can't go forward or backward, it ought to reason emergency surgical operation. in case you're looking after it now, that's minor laparoscopic surgical operation and demands basically 5 small incisions. If course the full gallbladder could come out just to get the stone out. #a million See a doctor and get a sonogram. it is going to tell the dimensions, the place that's and if a surgical operation is indicated. #2 surgical operation is scheduled and is an outpatient affair. #3 maximum all insurances pay for it, even Medicaid. I waited 3 years by way of concern of the surgical operation. i became into in periodic discomfort so undesirable that I cried all day. the full element became into cured in a pair hours. GET IT executed!
