My 9 month old shih tzu puppy had his hernia (he was born with it) repaired about 2 weeks ago. is it universal that the scar looks like a bulge in his skin. its about a marble size. his stitches are all right and doesnt seem to be in pain, except if he bumps it too hard, but im just wondering if its okay to have his scar look like that.
Answer: Impede w/ your vet, of course, but there can be considerable swelling like that after. If you see any discharge, super redness or a contaminated smell from the incision or the swelling keeps getting bigger, take him back to the vet for sure. The bump will go down eventually, be patient. I think having a chat w/ your vet might make you feel improved as it's always best to get your advice from him/her & not the net.
