Large and firm "lump" in lower abdomen 11 days post tumescent lipo, is this normal?

Asked By:Panda0418 in Alexandria, VA

I had tumescent liposuction on my upper/lower abdomen and flanks 11 days ago. I realize it's very early in the healing process however when I saw my PS 3 days after my procedure he stated that I was more swollen than he would expect. I currently have a lot of swelling, to the point you can't tell the procedure was completed. With that being said my entire lower abdomen is pretty hard and painful, is this normal or so I need to make a f/u with my PS prior to my one month f/u? Thank you!
