Thank you very much for your question.What you are describing does not sound like a normal postoperative course, and I am especially worried when you mention that your foot is numb (especially 10 days after surgery).I would call your doctor's office again, and if you really feel like your foot...

Thank you for you question.  This is a fairly common question for our BBL patients.  We usually recommend patients to lay on there side and alternate from right to left either in the car or while in bed.  It proves to be a challenge for the first couple of weeks but it will be worth it in the end.

Thank you for your question.  all doctors have different post op routines.  You need to call your PS and ask him where he likes it.  I personally don't put foam on my patients.
