Thanks for the question. Swelling in the lower abdomen following a tummy tuck is a normal finding and may persist, in my experience, for up to 4 months. Having said that, you want to rule out any underlying causes of swelling, such as a seroma( fluid collection), which require drain management by your surgeon.... more

Ok I got a Tummy Tuck on May 22 and I went home after getting home when I take my pain meds I begin to itch alot. I went to the bathroom and I saw that where my stiches were it was like really bubbly around them like it was all around them. It still icthes like crazy. It also itches in the middle of my tummy. I try not to scratch but it is hard. The doctor take my stiches out on mondday hopefully the budble around the stickes will leave.
