Hello,In short, yes. You are still relatively early in your healing process and burning, tingling pains are expected to come and go as your nerves heal. Share your feelings and concerns with your Plastic Surgeon so that they can reassure you and advise you of what to expect as you continue in your recovery. All the best!
Congratulations on your recent surgery! The burning tingling sensations you are feeling are normal after surgery. The reason this occurs is due to the nerve endings regrowing after surgery. It is not uncommon for this sensation to come and go, just know it will get better as you heal. Best of luck!
Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear about your burning sensation after tummy tuck surgery. Differing sensations in your abdomen after a tummy tuck are not uncommon. As a result of the swelling and skin stretch with surgery, the nerve endings can become irritated. This can cause episodes of different sensations, that can be described as burning or a "sparky", or like an electric current. It may take several weeks to months, but these sensations typically resolve. Voice your concerns with your surgeon, so that they can examine you and can provide reassurance.
It is normal to have some tingling one month after liposuction and abdominoplasty. The liposuction temporarily causes injury to nerves and of course the abdominoplasty cuts some nerves which then slowly heal after surgery. Most importantly though , if your concerned please follow up with your surgeon.
Hi, there. Tingling and burning sensation is not uncommon one month after tummy tuck. You are still very early in healing process. It may take up to 3-6 months for swelling to diminish; it may take one to two years for nerves to "wake up" or re-establish. If you are concerned, please check with your plastic surgeon. Best wishes with your recovery.
Thank you for the question. You are still in the early stages of the healing process. Healing from surgery will take time. In the initial phase after surgery, within the first three months, there is a period of inflammation and scarring that must occur in order for you to heal. The surgical areas will typically appear as swollen, "lumpy/bumpy", feel tender, firm, etc. Over ensuing months these processes will subside and the inflammatory process gives way to scar softening and remodeling. It is during this time that you will start to see your results appear as the swelling dissipates and the soft tissues soften. I tell my patients that they will not see their final results for at least to 6 months.At this point I would recommend to continue close follow up with your plastic surgeon. This will allow you and your surgeon the opportunity to to discuss your concerns and help allay any anxieties you may be experiencing. I hope this helps. Best wishes

Hello, I suggest that you continue with the lymphatic drainage massage on your abdomen, and also visit a certified plastic surgeon. 6 weeks is to early to see final results, but would be good that you catch up with a certified doctor. Good Luck!

Hello, a common reason for a small opening along the incision 4 weeks after surgery, is a suture coming to the surface and causing local inflammation, then ultimately falling out (called a suture abscess). This can be treated with a topical antibiotic and bandage until it heals. I...
