What would help to use the bathroom after tummy tuck?

Great question.  I recommend that my patients walk bent over for two weeks after  Tummy Tuck surgery so the use of a walker makes getting around easier.  The discomfort patients experience after surgery is usually more from the muscles being tightened than the incision itself.  As for using the bathroom, some of my patients have used a toilet seat extender.  You should check with your Plastic Surgeon as to what instructions and recommendations they have for your specific recovery. Best of Luck.

I prefer patients keeping slightly hunched over for several days until the tissues soften a bit.  Best of luck.

you did not mention what surgery you were specifically asking about.  it is difficult/impossible to answer this question without knowing this.
