Is the fluid in my stomach after tummy tuck normal?

Asked By:Jamie_L in Derby, KS

I had a tummy tuck with Lipo done on July 22. Today when I touched my tummy it felt like a water balloon jumped from one side of my tummy to the other. It isn't hard but my tummy is a little but distended. Plus there are a couple of harder lumps that feel like they are about the size of a lemon along mu incision line. I tried to call my doctor but since it is Sunday the office is closed. It did say they check messages throughout the day. I waiting for a call back but very concerned.
