Incision site pain after tummy tuck

Your pain could be caused by a suture reaction to the buried sutures, a developing infection, a cyst or various other things If your plastic surgeon is on vacation, then contact his office and inquire who is covering his practice. If something is painful, its evaluation and treatment should not be deferred.

Lump Over Mons After Tummy Tuck

Generally, part of a tummy tuck procedure involved tightening the abdominal fascia, or "inside" girdle to flatten the abdomen and thin the waist. Many surgeons,myself included, use permanent suture to perform the tightening. I suspect the lump you are feeling is the knot at the end of the suture. Another possibility is that you are feeling some swelling from a drain sight. Let your surgeon know. They may be able to remove or bury the knot, or treat an area of swelling. more
