Belly button after laproscopy

Hi,

I am almost 2 weeks after having a laproscopy. I have 4 incisions, 2 on my left side one on my right and the last one is under my belly button.

I thought the the incision was inside the belly button instead, has anyone else had their incision directly underneath it not inside?

Thank you!

Mine was directly on my belly button but I think it depends where they find the endo as to where they go in! X

Hi Yes, one of my incisions is just below my belly button, not inside

I’ve had 6 unfortunately but each time they’ve gone through inside my belly button. It may be your surgeons choice. With my hysterectomy I thought I would have 4 but only had 3. I’d say if it’s healing ok not to worry xxx

I had one right at the bottom which gave me grief and one like on the 'ring' which I think I was too pudgy for them to get in, hence why they went through the bottom of the bellybutton at the end haha x
