I had hernia repair surgery on a small hernia which I always thought was just an outie and I had a general surgeon do a hernia repair and he also removed excess skin from the top . I had no mesh put in . It almost looks like my belly button was just flipped inside out and still sticking up. The top of it is very hard where the stitches are ... i really thought it would look like an innie and I'm really upset and want to know if it just needs time to soften up and go in?! Thanks !!!!
