? Hernia or adhesion post laparoscopy

Hi

Just looking for advice. I had my laparoscopy with ablation 9 weeks ago. Have felt some pain on my tummy which had felt muscular since the op but noticed I have a small lump which feels almost bruised when I touch it. Could this be a hernia or an adhesion and is it worth speaking to GP? I had a lymphatic drainage massage a couple weeks ago and she said I still had some swelling around that side of my tummy and thought she felt an adhesion. Any advice is welcome! Thank you.

Thanks for your reply, gp isn’t sure if diverticulitis or surgery related so referring back to gynae. Never ending!

Thank you. Im thinking it isn’t diverticulitis because I’ve got very mild pain, feels more bruised at a specific point in my tummy. How do you feel with an attack? X
