If you are talking about the scar in the upper right quadrant, it is in fact from infant pyloric stenosis (stomach blockage) surgery he had. Will Ferrell, Jon Cryer and Farrah Fawcett had the same surgery when they were babies - it's a weird condition causing deadly malnutrition and dehydration, fairly common (2 -4 in every 1000 babies) in developed countries, less elsewhere.

Simon is known to 'faint' often, he goes to a secret place in the jungle to be alone. He feels a 'pulse beating in his head' and collapses after an imaginary conversation with the evil inside himself and a subsequent nosebleed. Simon is probably an epileptic.
Not completely sure...but it looks like he maybe had pylori stenosis as an infant and had to have a pylorotomy....they don't tend to do it that way these days but back in the day when Simon was little they would have done it 'old school'. That would be my guess!!

In "The Lord of Flies", Simon finds the body of the dead paratrooper and becomes sick at the smell of the rotting corpse. He frees the parachute line and runs to tell the others about the body, but they mistake him for the beast and beat him to death.
