Asked By:Fearless2730 in Springfield, MA

Since my surgery, I’ve always felt the little balls in my butt area. There is one in the center of each butt cheek. I always thought these were the internal scars of where the apply the fat. Lately I’ve had pain in the area where the little balls are, not sure if it’s because I’ve gained some weight so maybe the stretching of the skin is causing the balls to move. Now that I’m having this pain, I’m a little worried and I’m wondering, are these balls really scars or could they be something else?
