Answer: Wound VAC after Tummy Tuck Dear Rosie,Thank you for your pictures. I am sorry that you have had some complications. In my opinion nothing more than normal walking would be advisable at this point. Please discuss this with your plastic surgeon as well. Good Luck!

Answer: Wound Vacs will help accelerate your healing and I would have no problems with my patients doing activities that did not involved movement around the wound, such as sit ups or twisting side to side. But you should check with your surgeon first as he/she would be the one dealing with any fallout if anything unexpected should occur. I'm sorry you are going through this but you will heal and hopefully it will be better than anyone could have imagined.
