I had a tummy tuck 8 years ago. For the past 5 years my stomach will swell up for no reason. Now it swells up with fluid build up and then puss will come out thru my belly button. I have CT scan/sonogram done dr's keep saying they can't find anything but I need surgery. I was told It could be from my tummy tuck like there is a pocket in there that is causing a cyst or ucler I forget what word they used? How do you fix this when no one will touch you they said they can't help me!
