Asked By:NewGirls0412

I am a 36 year old overall healthy women. I had BA surgery and lipo of my abdomen, sides and back done 23 days ago and my sides and back feel very tight and when I try to stretch to one side or another I feel a burning even a tearing sensation. I also want to add that my abdomen right in between my rib cage is extremely sensitive to touch and is somewhat hard. I had lyphatic drainage massages done for 8 days after the surgery and I have had to endomology treatments. Is this normal.
