I am 5.5 weeks postop from a rectus plication (without tummy tuck) for a severe diastisis recti. My drain was removed & a large hematoma was found at 7 days p.o. Soon, I developed a large seroma in my lower abdomen. Another drain was placed when serial aspiration failed & was removed after 2.5 wks when drainage was 15ml per day for 3 days. A small seroma developed 24 hours after removal. 10ml was aspirated from it 4 days later. When should it resolve & what can be done to speed up the process?
