Asked By:anbus2007 in Marietta, GA

I had lipo done on 5/15 and since then I have had soooo much pain and have not been able to go back to work. I have been back to my doctor twice since then to have the fluid drain because they had stopped draining less than 24 hrs after the surgery. I have my lower/upper abdomen, bra rows and waist done. I know its to soon to see the full results but I'm concerned because my body looks deformed and still experiencing pain from all the swelling. Is this normal for 10 days in?
