On my left flank I felt maybe like a knot under the skin I have been trying to rub it out. But it is very sensitive to touch almost a burning sensation. There is no skin discoloration or anything you can see extra orally. I am just wondering if it will resolve on it's own or if I should be concerned

Answer: Painful knot An evaluation is needed to determine what may be causing your discomfort. I encourage you to visit with your surgeon for an examination. She/He is most familiar with the details of your surgery and how you've been progressing through recovery.

Answer: Painful lumps after liposuction Many causes may be the reason for this lump. It is usually deep scar, possibly with small nerve endings entrapped within it (neuroma??); also fat necrosis may present that way for some time. Injection of corticosteroid (Kenalog) may be considered. This should be communicated with your surgeon. Good luck.
