I developed a seroma (90cc) 2 weeks after my TT 8/9/16 About 20cc was taken out on my last of 3 aspirations. Is it ok to resume exercising? If not, how long should I wait and what type of exercise would be acceptable to start with?
Answer: Fluid collection As long as you are draining fluid and have a fluid collection, I would not resume exercise. I believe the increase in exertion could perpetuate the fluid collection. After your fluid collection is resolved, then you can probably return. Ask your plastic surgeon concerning this.

Answer: Tummy tuck Thank you for your question and photographs.I would recommend you consult with your surgeon seeing as they are the person who knows your anatomy, medical history and exactly what they performed during your operation. Every patient recovers differently and at different speeds but I tell my patients to wait, at minimum, six weeks before easing back into their regular fitness routine. However, realize that your body may require some time to return to prior strength. I hope this helps.Best of luck in your recovery!Sincerely, James Fernau, MD, FACSBoard Certified ENTBoard Certified Plastic SurgeryMember of ASPS, ASAPS, ISAPS, The Rhinoplasty Society, AAFPRS, OTO/HNS, ASLMS
