Dull aching pain in leg after BBL, what could this be?

Question

I had a BBL 7 days ago. I am in Miami for 4 more days and I am from Canada. I go see PS tomorrow but I was wondering if you could shed some light in what this could be. It hurts worse when I walk, I walked for 2 hrs yesterday and thats when I really started feeling it. Its a dull to the bone type of ache. It is in my hip/thigh are on my left leg. I have a drain located there but its deeper and aches down the thigh a little. Thanks

Liposuction itself can cause pain in the area, but always as doctors have to double or triple check to eliminate the possibility of DVT.Talk to your doctor, he will lead you better.Dr. Cardenas

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early on the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation, discomfort and irregularities are normal.
If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)
