I had liposuction on my hips and abdomen 10 months ago. I still have some numbness on the sides of my waist and down my pelvic bones in the front. It has slowly improved a bit on one side. Can I expect more feeling to return, or is the numbness likely permanent at this point?
I had abdominal lipo and they sutured the incisions closed, and on the third day when the nurse removed them, my left side took her two passes as not all the material was removed the first time. I now have persistent numbness and swelling at that location 8 months later, and it seems to be getting worse. The doctor assured me it couldnt be a piece of suture material but it feels like it. I still have some sutures in my thighs and face from past procedures that havent cause issues
I had lipo 6 months ago. I used foams and an abdominal board for two months, wore my compression garment for the majority of the time since I still have numbness and pain on one side. I wore the binder for 3 months, exactly as instructed. I have three creases in my back and one on my belly. The fat removal wasnt uniform, so I have to have a revision. Will that help? What can be done to fix the creases? I also have a deep hole in my back. What can be done about that?
I had traditional liposuction on my thighs 6 months ago. Only a small amount was taken to use for ft to the breast however I have a patch of numbness on my lower thigh and knee and its causing nerve pain when my leg is tapped or knocks against something. My surgeon keeps telling me liposuction doesnt cause numbness but Im worried its been 6 months that its likely to permanent. The other areas of numbness I had have resolved
I'm considering getting liposuction and breast fat transfer, but my concern is that I will suffer from large areas of numbness on my abdomen and thighs from the lipo. I previously had breast implants in 2013 (removed in 2017) and my nipple and entire lower portion of the breast is permanently numb on both sides ever since the initial procedure. The area around my c-section scar is also numb, so I'm afraid my body has a tendency to get nerve damage easily.
It's been 2 weeks after my 360 lipo. On my abdominal area I had vaser as well as lipo and on my arms I had J-Plasma as well as lipo. I have numbness and hard lumps in my arms and lumps in my lower back as well as lumps in my upper abdomen area. Is that normal if so how long will it take to go away or should I go back to my surgeon?
I had WAL lipo on both legs all the way down to my ankles. Post op garment has been the only painful part. One leg became so swollen the bands at the ankle cut circulation and my foot turned blue. After a day without it on and legs elevated, saw reduced swelling, discoloration and numbness. I made the mistake of putting it back on for half a day and regret it. A lump formed, numbness and swelling returned until I took it off again. Can it turn out okay if i dont wear it at all?
Yesterday I began experiencing intense itching on my lower back, like its itching underneith the skin. I didnt attempt to itch it too much because the skin there is still pretty numb, but I did squeeze it a bit for relief. Eventually I pulled over at a visitor center and found that the area was very swollen. I used a salt, lemongrass scrub to rub over the affected area and it immediately turned bright red and mottled (the first two pictures). This morning it appears less swollen but more red.
After fat transfer to breast and lipo on my thighs, one of my legs is still thicker than the other after 7 months post-procedure. I had numbness in this thigh which subsided after 6 months but is still a bit there now. The quad muscle feels thick, heavy, hard, more dense compared to the left one like after strenuous exercise. Ultrasound of the swollen leg revealed no blood clots, my PS doesn't know why this is happening, neither do other surgeons I saw, do I have a lymphedema? Who do I go see?
Ive had numbness, swelling & pain for 5 months since I had my calves lipod-but only in my right leg. My dr used a closed drain-I was squeezing fluid out 2 weeks after the procedure. My right leg swells so bad every day, to the point where I cant feel my foot. Its been 5 months, today after an airplane ride it looked like this picture-dotted bruises, and feels hot and itchy. I dont live near my PS. What should I do? What could this be?
