Six weeks ago I had upper and lower abdominal, flank and waist liposuction. I see improvement in waist area. My abdominal protrudes and is hard with lumps. I am 5'7" and 150#. I have been doing lymphatic messages, self message, wear garment 24/7, and Epsom salt compresses twice daily. I walk a couple miles daily. When will this hardness subside? What else can I do?
