Asked By:Wedlow702 in Las Vegas, NV

I had a Laparoscopy 1 month ago to determine if I had Endometriosis. At 2 weeks pp I got an infection, bleeding, had a hematoma, and was put on antibiotics. I don't know if I am healing properly because the incision/wound doesn't look right to me. Could I have gotten another infection? The wound doesn't look like it's all the way closed at 1 month. The skin around my incision just looks awful. I still feel sore and get painful twinges in my incision or in my belly button at times as well.
