I had my tummy tuck, hernia repair and muscle repair on June 9, 2014. While the incision is healing nicely, I've noticed that the left side of my belly button looks like isn't attached to the left side of my stomach, unlike the right side which looks like it is. I'm using Neosporin twice a day like the doctor suggested and when i have asked about my belly button, he's stated it looks fine. Am I worrying too much or will I need a revision of this later on down the line? Is this a wait and see process?
