I had a tummy tuck almost three months ago. I started to notice for the past 3 weeks or so that I have a number of hard lumps under my incision area. Is this normal?

I had my surgery out of state so I don't know if this is something that I should consult another surgen about. The lumps are very hard they feel like cartalige.

Hardness and lumps after Tummy Tuck?

Since it could be a few different things, it's probably best to call your doctor if you're in doubt. S/he can either arrange for you to see someone close by or might need to see you again in person.

Good luck with your recovery!
