Is the hard bump above my belly button normal? (Photo)

joz0473
I am 12 weeks post tummy tuck with muscle repair - no lipo. I have what feels like a lump above my belly button. It's gets worse throughout the day and is very hard but not painful. Doctor examined me yesterday and said I have no fluid or muscle repair issues . Said its just my body. Does that sound right.
