What Are Those Long Sausage Roll Shaped Hard Lumps in my Inner Thighs? Fat Fibrosis?

June 5, 2013
Asked By:Sandra43292 in Texas City, TX

3 months post-op following large volume lipo (12 litres) on thighs and knees. I have these long thick sausage roll hard lumps inside my legs (inner thighs). They are so hard and feel like fat fibrosis, maybe made from the cannula in and out tunnel. My legs are hurting badly and swollen. I have electrical chocs and burning in my legs all the time. My doctor from Dominican Republic doesn't answer my e-mails or calls. No plastic surgeons want to do follow-ups because my surgery was done elswhere.
