Whenever there is any surgical wound, the body responds with accumulation of scar tissue to repair the wound.
This scar tissue is what causes the hardness at the site of the repair.
The scar tissue is remodeled by the body and the healing (repair)
of the wound is completely healed in 3 months. At that time the hardness goes away..
