About hernia?
Answer:
Sounds like you have a hematoma. Blood collection under the skin. As long as it is not getting bigger you are ok. Sometimes one hernia is harder to fix. If is very common after hernias to have bruising and swelling. I would not worru unless it is getting bigger. You should see an improvement every day. If you have another hernia you will find out soon enough at your doctor's visit. If you have increasing pain let the surgeon know.
You need to make an appointment with your Dr ASAP. There should be no bulge still to be felt or seen after your surgery. Either it did not take or you ruptured it again somehow. If your Dr will not get you in for a check in a timely manner you need to go to the ER and have them check you out so you don't really harm yourself! Shame on your Dr for treating you like that without even checking you! He should be reported!
