11 days post op BBL: Is this nerve pain? Will it go away?

Hello and thank you for your question!While it is not abnormal to still have some post-operative pain at this point, these concerns need to be discussed with your surgeon. At this point the pain should be easily managed with analgesics and  should be decreasing each day.Good luck!

Hello 490830,

Thanks for your questions! After Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery, pain may occur the first 7-9 days and should be relieved with analgesics (Aleve, Motrin, Tylenol, Advil, Ibuprofen, among others). These pain medications are usually prescribed by plastic surgeons to help with general discomfort. If you still continue having pain and discomfort, I would recommend you consulting with your plastic surgeon, especially if you notice an increase in swelling, pain, redness, drainage, or bleeding in the surgical area, or if you develop fever (above 100.4 F). Your plastic surgeon in Colombia has intimate knowledge about the procedure performed and detailed familiarity about your potential complications. You might be delaying your recovery by not contacting your plastic surgeon. With appreciation! Dr. De La Cruz.
