General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for trusting Healthcaremagic!
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
consult a general surgeon and get a biopsy of that lump. it could be recurrence.
Most probably it could be an enlarged lymph node, so it is better to take a biopsy of that node to confirm it recurrence or not.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
