Major thigh swelling after BBL on 11/25. Should I be concerned? (Photo)

November 28, 2014
Asked By:MalloryMay in Florida, FL

I am 4 days post op from a BBL. I have major swelling to both my thighs although I did not have liposuction done in that area. I haven't been able to see my dr since he is currently on vacation, but the not so trustworthy clinic says there's nothing wrong. I'm still worried though. I don't have pain in my legs at all, but my left heel is tender. I walk a lot, drink a lot of water and sleep with my feet elevated on a pillow and yoga mat. Should I be concerned?
