Why is my belly still so round and my belly button so pushed out? (Photos)

Asked By:kaylacudaback06 in Albuquerque, NM

I am 5 weeks post op. My belly is still super hard and round and my belly button is flush with it. My Dr said thede isn't fluid build up and that thus may be close to my final result. I'm really bummed about this, is there anything I can do to make if better? I also had a spot where my incision opened up but I've been packing it and she said its healing well.
