Hi Everyone,
My son Nicholas is 4 weeks postop and has been doing pretty well. They put him on the heart lung machine through an incision in the groin/leg area. He is now complaining that area hurts. He hasn't really complained about it too much until recently. The bottom portion of the scar area looks pinkish/red and is warm to the touch and feels like there is a knot or lump in it, but he actually says that the top part hurts more. I plan to call the Dr when they open, but I was just wondering if anyone had any other advice or ideas as to what could be going on.
Thanks!
