Hello. I’m a 25yo man. I underwent surgery for abdominoplasty with rectus plication on 2th of February. Last week (week 3) I noticed a swollen area below the scar. It’s a seroma as my surgeon diagnosed it and partially aspired it. Some days before I noticed it, I had an argue with my parents, screaming and shouting. Could the consequent raising in blood pressure and heart rate have possibly caused seroma? Thanks
