I am 7 days post-op tummy tuck. I promise I did my homework before getting this surgery, and my husband got his gynecomastia and lipo three weeks prior. It's crazy to me how many different "Do's & Don'ts" ps have. It's seems like you never really know what you are doing correctly because of the many versions! I can barely remember what my ps said before surgery! Lol I have drain tubes in as we'll below the scar line in my pubic area. I can assure you that they are very uncomfortable, but hopefully tomorrow at my 1st post-op appointment, my ps will take them out. So far I am happy with how my stomach looks, but I was ordered not to take the binder and gauze off or shower until he removes my drain tubes tomorrow. I have been sweating like crazy today and sneezing a lot, which has made my belly button very soar! My new belly button is an outy and has always been an iny!
