Appendix scar lump?

I had my appendix out about 3 years ago, it was an emergency and i was left with a 4 inch scar.. it didnt heal particularly well and I have been left with adhesions (scar tissue)
now there seems to be a white lump growing at the right end of the scar,, i am not sure if its come from unfder the scar but it is now above it too. it isnt particularly big but i am sure it wasnt there before.. what could it be?

unfortunately, some doctors do leave scar tissue but the white lump may well be infection, not a professional here, but if it were me I'd be off to the doctor, better to be safe than sorry,
hope everything goes good for you!! good luck.

See your Dr....

most likely it's scare tissue.....when i had my hystorectomy, i had knots under my scares and i called the doc and she said that it was nothing to worry about...that it was scare tissue..
