I now have a small bump 1/2 inch below healed incision , and wonder if this is normal? Is this the monitor? Or should I get it checked?

Hello Anonymous,

Did you mean reveal heart monitor?

The device is place under the skin of your chest. It is not visible in most patients. However, you should give your surgeon's office a call to report this and confirm that the bump is the monitor and not an adhesion.

Regards,
