I am 10 weeks post op of a body lift. I had a Seroma after surgery, my surgeon says all fluid has been removed and he has no issues with my recovery (8 weeks post op). I am unable to get in contact with my surgeon and nurse as they are now on holidays. Any advise would be much appreciated.

Answer: Drinking I would not recommend a girls night out of drinking at 10 weeks postop. Especially since you have already has a complication with a seroma that was drained 2 weeks ago. If you are going to have a drink with dinner I think that is ok, but you will make your recovery longer and there may be more complications if you drink heavily. Good luck and keep trying to call your PS for input as well.

Answer: Postoperative instructions I do not recommend seeking postoperative instructions/advice from anyone other than your surgeon. Refer back to the instructions provided to you after your surgery and continue to try to contact your surgeon for a definitive answer to your postop questions.
