 [ Symptoms ] how to soften internal scar tissue i had a transflap surgery due to mastectomy and have harden tissue around an opened wound in my abdomen how can i soften it [ Disease ] sorry you had breast cancer i like the tram flap approach it is a great reconstructive method in my opinion i am a little confused because you state you have an open wound in your abdomen this is a not uncommon complication of tram flap surgery if the wound is still healing i would suggest you consult your surgeon about this hardened tissue it could be many other things besides scar tissue until all of your wounds have healed completely you probably should not take any action toward scar reduction that can wait until you are all healed up i wish you all the best
