Hard Lump After Tummy Tuck?

Megrosesmom
I had a tummy tuck 7 weeks ago. Having said that, a few days after my TT I noticed a hard lump/ball below my incision and slightly to the right. When I sit up, I can actually see a slight indent where this "lump" is located. Also, it doesn't cause me pain nor does it move/rotate when touched. My PS didn't seem concerned at all web I asked him about this. It hasn't grown in size but I was nervous it may be an incisional hernia. Any advice or suggestions?
