Thanks for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

You had a laceration repair 3 weeks ago and below the scar is a hard lump. This lump is due to the sutures and the trauma. It may take several month for that lump to resolve. I would recommend continuing with the Vitamin E and Maderma it may help reduce the lump.
