Collagen implant

Having had an angiography a couple of weeks ago I have a lump in my groin still. The GP says it's the implant and it will dissappear gradually in 10 weeks or so. It does bother me a bit, not discomfort but the thought of dislodging or damaging it somehow.

Any reassurance out there on this please?
