yes, i had it for the first week, and it goes away.  im noticing the last few days that my scar tissue seems to all of a sudden be 'squishing' a bit too, so hopefully the f'ing stuff is melting away...

Yes I would echo PeterBatemans comments, I too have had this.  It is a bit off putting at first but seems remarkably common.

yeah, most of it will go away on its own. if not then you may need to go to the doc and get him to drain it with a syringe. it's a piece of cake. don't sweat it.
