Post Appendicitis Surgery

Hey just had Acute appendicitis and had to have emergency surgery to remove appendix.  Now I had a lump under my skin just above my elbow that is below my skin.  it seems as though it is attached to my vein or just by the muscle.  It does not hurt but I am worried sick it could be something serious.

It could be from your IV.  Have the doctor take a look, probably not serious.
