I am 4, nearly 5 weeks post breast reduction with no complications. I was an active person before the surgery but had 4 weeks off work to recover, in which time I did very little. I have a fat/ bloated abdomen (which I never had before), puffy stomach and even my thighs look bigger. I ate sensibly during my time off work and I dont over eat, or snack. I drink lots of water, I dont drink fizzy drinks. Have I gained wait?? Or will things settle down now that I am active again?
Everything went well .4 hours long Today my stomach is so bloated. I've been eating well and lost some weight but now I look pregnant!! I've had to take some laxatives to go to loo. But that's normal for me . I've stopped taking cocodamol today to see if that helps.
I am 2 1/2 weeks post op, I have not had any constipation and have managed to maintain regular bowel movements. However, I have been very bloated and gassy since my surgery. Is this typical and if so, how long could it typically last? Thank you in advance for you time
I just had a breast reduction 4 days ago. However, I haven't had a bowel movement in almost a week...I know the medicine causes constipation. When should I be concerned/take more drastic measures (i.e. getting an enema?) My stomach is so huge and bloated! My shirts that were large on me 1st day post op now don't button around my stomach! Help!
