First of all how long do you feel numbness in the abdominal area below the belly button? How can i distinguish if it is water retention in my abdominal area or fat accumulation? Lastly, during core/abdominal work outs is it normal for my abdominal area to remain sore even after giving that area breaks from such work outs? Thank you.

Answer: Post tt numbness Hi Nana23gurlsThe numbness you are experiencing is not a complication but rather a side effect that always happens with tummy tuck. Sensation usually starts to return about a month after surgery from the flanks and ribs and works its way down and toward the middle. The advancing front of sensation moves at about 1" per month. It may take a few years for full recovery of WHAT YOU WILL RECOVER. Some people get nearly full return, while some only get patchy return of sensation.Regarding second question, this requires an exam.Finally, the pain is normal after this big operation, and will take months to go away.Best to you.sek
