Why Was my Tummy Tuck Painless?

I have had a full tummy tuck 3 weeks ago, including repair of tummy muscle, right from the moment I woke I experienced NO pain. I am struggling to understand this. I certainly have the tightened sensations and I couldn't walk straight for 10 days because the skin felt to tight, and I can definatley feel the newly stitched tummy muscle is very tight, but I have experienced no pain. Is there any explanation?

Everyone has a unique response and experience. I have no explanation for you in particular, but the spectrum goes from no pain to fairly severe discomfort, and most are in the middle somewhere. Glad things have gone so well for you. Best wishes for continued uneventful recovery.

I have the same issue. I thought I was crazy. I only had to take the pain pills for 2 days after. I feel the same as I did before the surgery except of course my stomach is tight. I also have NO loss of energy like many people have spoken of and my swelling is very minimal. Mine was 3 weeks ago too on October 24. Glad to hear you are doing so well too!
