What Can You Do to Relieve Tummy Tuck Swelling?

August 25, 2011
Asked By:Meliora in Pittsburgh, PA

I'm 1 week post op and I'm starting to swell. I knew it would happen and I know it will go away, but damn it's uncomfortable. Anything you can take? Anything you can eat that helps? A wizard I can contact?
