My surgery was on April 10th. Everything was just fine until last night. I kept waking up in cold sweats. Now feeling a little cold and keeps sweating, it's deffinately sweating not drainage. Even though I know it's warm. I'm very swollen but I presume it's normal. Thanks
Answer: Chills and Sweats Post Surgery Any time that you are post-surgical and you develop chills/fever/swerats, you should contact your surgeon immediately just to make sure that it is not an infection. The body goes through some strange changes after liposuction, but chills and sweating are usually not part of the recovery process.

Answer: Chills, Night Sweats After Liposuction I suggest you see your physician for an evaluation immediately. Systemic symptoms like this are not common after surgery and could be a sign for an infection or allergic reaction to medication. It is best that you be evaluated promptly to ensure everything is okay. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Fever & Chill After Liposuction Fever and chill after liposuction may be a sign of an infection. There are essentially three ways to have an infection after surgery. First, at the area of your surgery, or surgical sight infection. Typically the area of your surgery may be red, hard and even painful. The second way is for you to have a urinary tract infection. The risk of this increases with use of urinary catheters during surgery. Typically you would burning and pain with urination and perhaps more frequency and urgency of urination. The third type of infection is pulmonary, which can be from having general anesthesia and not breathing deeply after surgery. Typically you will have shortness of breath, perhaps a cough. No matter what the origin, it is important for you to contact your surgeon with your symptoms, if nothing else to see you and reassure you!
