Hi I am 4 weeks post op. I felt a popping and had a bugle under my best bone last week saw nurses sent away saying nothing wrong. This week I have felt more popping and pain as got sickness bug and Bugle is still there scar is now bleeding. Emailed & called no response. Done lying flat with knees bent feet flat and pillow in curve of back lifted my shoulders and I can feel a 2 finger gap at the top of my abdomen and then it is closed so I would say it is 3 stitches. Shooting pains unable to drive due to pain. Resting for day like this and getting worse and burning at the top of abdomen. Is this going to affect tt majorly?
I coughed and pop I felt my stitches rip with a hot and painful sensation after. It happened three times. I now have a bruise around my navel area. I dont feel as tight as I did after the surgery. Im 6days PO from TT with muscle repair. How could my stitches rip so easy. My belly button is a bit high. I wasnt marked prior to surgery could this placement be a result of no marking?
I am about 8mo po from my tt with mr. everything has been great. I just got a cold a few days ago and now have this terrible and uncontrollable cough. Im concerned that the cough may compromise my MR. is this possible at this point? What is the likelihood this can happen and what would it feel like? My tummy feels sore, but I think that may be muscle soreness from the coughing...or maybe I popped a stitch...I dont know. Ive reached out to my PS, but figured Id also post on here!
My PS went on vacation and I have a question! He scared me when he said we dont wait the sewchers or how ever thats spelt to come undone ! How would I know ? He says a pop noise well would it be loud ? Could I feel it ? Help me
unintentially have lost 50 lbs, been to ER'S, hospitalized, unable to urinate, only while lieing down with right leg propped on pillows, unable to have BM'S without laxatives. bedridden, body under pressure being pulled downON R/SIDE Will a Dr. please give me an idea of what ipopped now taking my life. Also, had TT undone last month, did not help at all, right side still much lower than left and urine seems to be jiggling around, as if bladder has been squeezed down along with rectum.
I had a tummy tuck/muscle repair exactly a week ago and saw my surgeon today. He removed the dressings and said I am healing fine. When I went to the bathroom tonight I sat down and felt a popping sensation and a quick sharp pain, only lasting seconds. Standing up I see a small bulge bellow my belly button slightly to the right that I did not notice before. Is it possible that I could have popped a suture? How would I know if I did?
About 6 days after surgery, I choked while drinking and while coughing I felt a stitch pop, followed by a burning sensation that lasted a few minutes. I called my doctor and he said he put double the amount of stitches needed, and to not worry about it. My question now is: How do I test to know if the muscle repair still intact? What are the symptoms/signs for a undone muscle repair work? How can I make sure the muscles didn't separate again? I freaked out. Thank you!
Im 4 weeks tummy tuck post op.. My incision scar was pink and raised in a small area on my left side right above my hip. Last night, when massaging it, I put more pressure than usual. This resulted in a small popping sound and the incision area became completely flat within minutes. I didn't hurt at all but what the heck did I do and how much damage did I cause?
I think I may have popped a stitch I went to wipe dry my bb and stitch still tied came out , is this okay to leave it ? Or should I go back to get a new on put in ? Also I have e white drainage coming out my bb I placed a pad there to absorb it , it does not have a smell , and is brown on the pad , does my bb look normal, surgeon says it looks normal but I kind of think it looks infected please help ?haven't told ps about the stitch yet
