Lower back pain post lipoma removal

mam89
I had a lower back lipoma that was removed back in Oct 2017 due to pain. I now feel a lump right under that scar. It does come with pain after my long 12 hr shift at hospital. The pain feels like a pulling pain. What could it be? A lipoma or torn/tearing of scar tissue?
