Posted to Should I Still Have Swelling One Year After Tummy Tuck Surgery? on 11 Jan 2013

I just read this and was wondering what happened with the ultrasound? And swelling?

Hi there, I too had staples, 63 to be exact, my stepdad counted. :-) Mine were due to a big risk of infection from hernia repair. But I'm really worried about how the scar is looking. I get staples out tomorrow. Could you tell me how your scar is coming along? Post a pic maybe?

Thanks Sharyne. :-)

My PS doesn't allow any compression (Different if you have lipo though) because he says pressure hinders reattachment. Seems to be a small minority of PSs doing this. So I haven't had a binder or CG at all. Can't say I miss it. Happy healing!

I got my drains out on Wednesday and Thursday the swelling got bad, worse today. But I think that's normal as our bodies find a way to move the fluid around and get rid of it, because the normal system has been damaged by the surgery. And as everyone else here says, swell hell is a b**ch. ;-) Hey, only have 5 more months of this to deal with, right?
