Feeling bruised in my upper abs after TT

By Jen.P on 12 Sep 2011

I am 3 weeks and 3 days post op and I feel like I am bruised in my upper abs. I just started feeling this within the last few days. Im assuming its normal and I just am now starting to feel it because my numbness is starting to go away in some spots. Anyone else feel like this?

Thanks so much. What they described at week 3 which is were i am at, is exactly what I feel! My next do appt is next week and since im not in any horrible pain, i'll just ride it out til I see him. Pretty sure its just the normal part of healing :-) Thanks again!

Is it a sort of soreness? If so, it's probably normal. Here's what some doctors have to say about soreness in upper abs after a tummy tuck.

If you're concerned, you should give your surgeon a call, though. Better safe than sorry.
