I think you must be dealing with something other than a tummy tuck problem. I can't invent a reason that this should be happening and have anything to do with your operation. Intercourse is a complicated matter, and so are headaches.I sure hope it works out for you!
Many of my cosmetic surgery patients are habitual coffee drinkers - for the several days that patients curtail their oral intake after surgery, coffee drinkers are especially prone to migraines. A strong cup of coffee generally does the trick. Just a thought.
No, but other things (life) continue to occur even in post op tummy tuck patients. Get a History and Physical from your PCP. Elevated blood pressure is common in your (our) age range and are a frequent silent cause for headaches. Migraines can be treated medically and frequently with Botox for an combined therapeutic and cosmetic effect. Good Luck. Send Followup when you get it figured out.
Thanks for your question. It does not appear to be a related outcome/side effect of the surgery. You should make an appt to talk to your primary care physician. Best of Luck!
There is no known correlation between headache and tummy tuck. If you are in the early post operative phase (less than a week), it can possibly be due to anesthesia and related issues. Headache beyond this time frame needs to be evaluated if it is significant.
Hey there, Thanks for your question. Headaches aren't a side effect of an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck). Please consult with your physician.
Headaches are not a side effect of abdominoplasty surgery. Assuming your surgery was some time ago, this is even less likely to be associated with the medications and/or anesthesia. You should consult your primary care physician and possibly a neurologist for evaluation.
I'm sorry about the problem you are experiencing; this is not a complication of tummy tuck surgery that I have heard of. If the headaches continue, best to see a neurologist for more information, diagnosis, treatment recommendations. Best wishes.

This is an important question. Birth control pills can increase your risk for clotting especially in the first several months. I would discuss this issue at length with your gynecologist and plastic surgeon for specific recommendations tailored to you and the procedures performed.
Hello! Thank you for your question! It is not uncommon to drain, such as what you describe, immediately after your procedure. The drainage should slowly decrease over the next few weeks, at which time, your surgeon will determine when your drains will be removed. It is common for the drains...
The answer to your question is probably, but no one can give you a definitive answer without an exam. If you do not have any recurrent hernias, a tummy tuck can be done. There might possibly be a small increase in the risk of infection depending on the type of mesh used and whether it spans...
You may not be necessarily sensitive to or allergic to the micropore tape, but the skin may be getting sensitive from the tape coming on and off. The area looks fairly localized and could be irritated from a stitch that has worked itself close to the skin surface. As far as scar...
