I had Gyno surgery (primarily gland excision) almost 4 months ago now. One side is healed just fine, but the other side still seems to be puffy for some reason. When I touch the area I can feel the scar on both sides, but nothing major. I went to my surgeon about 2 weeks ago, but I don't think he could see what I was talking about. Neither side had gyno very bad, but the one side actually looks worse now. I'm thinking maybe the skin didn't adhere back like it was supposed to on the one side?
