I have a ball of what my ps thought was fluid over my belly button. He was only able to take a full syringe of fluid out once the other times he tried he couldn't pull any More out. He just tells me to massage it and it will go away eventually but I am 4 months post op and still have a somewhat hard ball over my belly button almost size of golf ball. My last visit he told me I may need a ultra sound to make sure there isn't fluid he can't get
