I had lipo surgery 2 weeks ago. The DR I chose wasn't board certified & had a blood transfusion. I'm going to make an appt with another plastic surgeon who's certified. My question is as follows: why am I having navel pain after surgery? I realize that there's trauma to the surgery site but it is so severe that I can't stand up straight (feels like my abs are ripping apart on the right side) & there's a bulge near my navel not noticeable with the naked eye. Any ideas before I see a professional?

At 10 weeks all patients have some swelling of the abdomen. The larger the patient the more significant this will be. As long as the overall trend is favorable there's nothing to worry about.
