10 months post op Tummy Tuck, will widespread numbness resolve at all?

Asked By:Dayna_ in Altoona, IA

I had my full abdominoplasty with muscle repair (no lipo) on November 5 of last year. It is ten months later and I have no improvement with the numbness in my belly. From hip-to-hip, ribs to mons, it is still completely numb. Do you think this has any chance of improving, or do I just have widespread, permanent nerve damage? I have gotten used to it by now, but a lot of my fellow November 2013 people have only just a little numbness below/around their belly button. Thanks.
