Do the genitals go numb after a tummy tuck? If so, will the feeling come back and how long should it take?

Question

Francis Johns, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question.A tummy tuck is not doing anything to change the genital area. You may have some swelling that is being pushed in to the groin because of the compression garments. That may be causing some different sensations in that area. If this feeling does not resolve over the next week, I would address it with your surgeon. Good luck with recovery.
