Hi and welcome.
This may be possible postsurgical fibroma or there was muscle rupture in this area. It is hard to say what it is without tests. YOu should do better CT scan, rather than ultrasound since CT is more accurate. It may oedema as well and in this case it should pull back within 1-2 weeks. Wish you good health. Regards
