Hi hope your well
I had a laparoscopy about three months ago and I had to go back to get the stitches out as they didn't dissolve and got an infection in my naval, it cleared up but ever the the infection or cyst comes back every few weeks swells up bursts is fine for a couple of weeks then comes back again?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
This is due to foreign body granuloma that develops after a thread or any devitalized tissue remains inside and thus a granuloma forms to discharge from time to time.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Consult your Surgeon and request for exploration under anesthesia for clearing the debris or foreign body and you will be cured.
