They begin like a pimple, break open with fluid and puss on my incision line(after tummy tuck). I’ve been opened up and had irritated tissue cleaned out twice after the tummy tuck(that included muscle repair and hernia repair). Each time irritated tissue begins to pour out of incision. This time we are trying steroid injections. It seems to be keeping them smaller but I am still in a great deal of pain and they are still evident. My doctor says it’s just abnormal healing.
