Sigmoid resection surgery: lymph nodes also removed for staging

I had a sigmoid resection Sept. 4th for one polyp that looked cancerous. Removed that and 9 lymph nodes and everything was clear. Going in to see the surgeon tomorrow as I have a lump and pain near the incision. They think I might have a hernia now. I sure hope not.

@a2025 just adding to my own post. Seen my surgeon that Sunday and he looked at the CT Scan. The lump I am feeling is where the 2 sets of stitches meet up. It will hurt as things tighten up or if I stretch too much.
