General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It could be an abscess or post operative collection. Consult a general surgeon and plan for an ultrasound. If there is much collection, it has to be drained using a wide node needle.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Wishing you all the best.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
