Tummy Tuck with Lipo Mess Up?

I had a tummy tuck with lipo and 28 days later I had sex (without the consent of my physician). My husband is a very large man and it got pretty heated up. During sex, he said he felt something move, I didn't, but now a week afterwards, I having pretty bad pain in my left side. I'm so worried I have done something to damage my surgery. I haven't talked to my surgeon yet, I won't see him for 2 more weeks. I'm hoping it'll go away after a few more days. Should I tough it out or what should I do?

What they will do is ask you some simple questions and then determine what course of action they feel is best for you. It is very unlikely that at 4 weeks out from your surgery that you did any major harm but the only way to determine this is for your surgeon to decide. Please give them... more
