New pain and soreness four months after fat transfer to buttocks? (photo)

I haven't had any pain at all up until now...is this normal? Four mths ago I had a CTT w/ lipo on back, neck and thighs & fat transfer to butt. I had some complications initially but no problems since and I've resumed my normal routine. The last couple of weeks my butt has become very sore all the way around my butt and hips, where the top of the butt crack is. No lumps, heat or redness in the area. I can't jog due to the bouncing and it's somewhat painful in the initial moments when I sit down. I have a follow up with my dr on 11/23 but is this normal?

Sometimes that happens after any trauma like liposuction, normally it goes away with some creams or ultrasound machine therapy. Ask you PS for the best option for you.

When a brazilian butt lift is performed fluid is injected to harvest the fat, and it is not uncommon to be swollen. This should resolve on its own. If it persists, see your surgeon to make sure there is no other issue.
