Is this an area of fat that was missed with lipo? Or is this truly an area the doctor said was “trauma” to the body/lymphatic?

About 2-3 months ago this area appeared on the side of my ribs, below the pec, right near the incision point. It wasn’t there before and I’ve continued to loose weight. It also fluctuates. Sometimes it’s more noticeable. Usually after I drink water or eat I went for my 8months check up this week and asked the doctor about it. He said it was trauma and it was the lymphatic system reacting. Is that really true, or did he not want to admit he missed this area during lipo?
