Hi.
Thanks for your query.
It is definitely possible that this will pass away. But the make sure , I would advise some tests like upper GI Endoscopy, ultrasonography, blood counts that no complication of wither of the procedures have occurred.
These investigation can lead to a diagnosis to make a proper treatment.
IF the investigations are normal the policy should be of wait and watch.
