Not Worth It
Spent: $3,000 in Tijuana, Mexico
I had a tummy tummy tuck 3 years ago. I had the procedure, because I'd had 3 c-sections and my cut was vertical from my naval to the pelvis.
At first it seemed really great, but I has a lot of discharge and I have had several occasions that my body have pushed the wire from the stitches out of my side.
I woke up this morning with abdominal pain. It felt like the wire from the stitches were loose, and I can feel the wire in my stomach. I have never felt that in my abdomen before, whay should I do? Is it possible that the stitches came aloose after this long?
