I've had this lump in my left chest for around 10 years now. It's about 5 inches below my nipple and kind of towards the center. Should I be worried about this? What could it be?

View allIt's been 10 days since my lipoma surgery but the wound hasn't healed yet and there's still pus buildup with a bad smell - is this normal or should I be worried about infection?
Surgery that involves a cut (incision) in the skin can lead to a wound infection after surgery. Most surgical wound infections show up within the first 30 days after surgery. Surgical wound infections may have pus draining from them and can be red, painful or hot to touch. You might have a fever and feel sick

Had laser surgery for pilonidal sinus a month ago but now there's pus and pain in the same spot again. Does this mean the surgery didn't work? What are my options for a permanent fix?

my wife has a small umbilical hernia and the doctors said surgery isn't needed right now but i'm worried about what happens if we don't do it later could it get worse also are there any foods she should avoid and how can we manage it at home
A small umbilical hernia might not require immediate surgery, but it can potentially worsen over time without treatment. It could get larger, causing pain, discomfort, or activity limitations. It's also important to be aware of potential complications like incarceration (hernia gets stuck and can't be pushed back in) or strangulation (blood supply to the trapped tissue is cut off).
