Is peeing too much after Tummy Tuck normal?

I had a tummy tuck today at 7:30 am. I have been peeing a lot this afternoon. I think it may be due to the swelling. Is this normal? I've been drinking lots of water as well.

I think you should be okay to get your vaccine for your job prior to your surgery. I deathly would ask your plastic surgeon his or her opinion concerning that.

You're having pain when coughing and sneezing due to the muscle tightening. It is totally normal to have numbness of your skin after surgery. This will last for several months. Concerning the sensation of bubbling I would visit with your surgeon.

It appears that one of your PDS sutures is sticking out from your repair.  This is a "spitting suture" and recommend seeing your surgeon so it can be trimmed.

A 120 mL seroma is not particularly large after in abdominoplasty. It probably will require several aspirations before it resolves.
