Answer: How long should chest pain last after tummy tuck? Chest pain is not "normal" after tummy tuck surgery. I am glad to hear that you did seek help in the emergency room but wonder if additional workup is necessary; potentially life-threatening problems may have been ruled out in the emergency room but other causes of chest pain (for example esophageal reflux...) should be evaluate as well. A visit with your primary care or internist may also be helpful. Best wishes.
