Asked By:jaynewhalen in England, AR

I had a full tummy tuck 8 weeks ago I developed a seroma which the hospital told me will reabsorb its self, im just wondering is there anything I can do to help it I cant go back to my ps as I had it done abroad but im so very happy with my results and my ps, my compression belt has broken so im wearing firm control underwear, will this be enough to support it? the seroma has got smaller and is not painful just a little weird when I can feel it swish about when I push my tummy.
