Appendices
I had appendicitis with peritonitis. Incision was vertical over bellybutton . Surgery was done on 2010 year. After that Doctor told me to come after 6months to do surgery for possible incisional hernia. I never went to do surgery. 11 years later still I don't have hernia( I guess). Shoul i still be concerned?
