I had the tummy tuck in 2016 with muscle repair. I developed a stubborn seroma so I had to wear the drainage tube the for a few weeks. The seroma issue was resolved but I have a painful fibrous lump at the drainage tube site. I've had an ultrasound and a CT scan and they've conclude that I have internal scarring from the surgery. The incision has healed very nicely. How can I get dissolve the dime size painful lump on my right side where the drainage tube was inserted?
Hi I had a 360 tummy tuck approx 7 months ago. Ive had no complications but Ive noticed just above my bikini line I had lumps that seemed to have appeared. I can feel them more when I stand up and they seem to go when lay down. I used to have regular lymphatic drainage massages but stopped due to the expense. Can anyone advise what these are and how to get rid of them please.
I had an abdominoplasty and hernia repair 11 months ago. Now I have a lump under the incision. Theres a little bit of pain when I press on it but not bad. I had a couple of small lumps shortly after the surgery that went away but can you still get scar tissue buildup 11 months post op? What else could it be?
I'm ten weeks post op hysterectomy and full tummy tuck... I'm concerned about my scar just move the mons pubic area. It's bulging above me below and very tight. There is a Hard lump in the centre an the scar feels tethered down.. At my Last check up the nurse said the scar tissues may be stuck on the abdominal wall but my surgeon won't comment about it until my next check up in 1 months time. My belly button is also very hard and scared she suggested I may need cortisone shots? Should I worry?
Hello all, i had surgeey over 200 days ago. I had many online consultations with my surgeon as to the kind of surgery best suited for me. I chose a TT plus additional lipo. Surgery went well. On arrival home i noticed a lump to on/below the incision to the right of my belly button plus nonsymetrical results on my hips. My surgeon said to give it time to settle and be patient. I since met my surgeon.my skin elasticity isn't great and that i need more surgery; a 360/back lift/lipo
I'm looking at getting a tummy tuck after mwl surgery, however since the surgery, i have noticed a lump under one of the scars from the keyhole surgery. I'm not sure what the lump is, but was wondering if this was common, and would it affect a tummy tuck?
Im 9.5 mos post surgery. I had 30 year old implants replaced and liposuction with renuvion. I had 2 liters removed from abs and flanks. At my 3 month follow-up my PS did let me know that I need a tummy tuck. I know I need one but are there any other non-invasive options beside TT? Bodytite? Another round of Renuvion? Or what about reverse TT? I do love my new shape in clothes but the lumpiness is preventing me from wearing a bikini. I also feel that some of lumps are missed pockets of fat.
Im 53, 130lb . I havent gained any weight since my surgery. I had a tummy tuck with MR last February and my DR said my swelling would go down . The top of my stomach looks amazing but right above my incision I have a huge bulge . And when I wear leggings it sticks out . What can be done or what went wrong ? Will it go away.
