Answer: Not common Headaches are not typical after plastic surgery of the body. This could be related to anesthesia, a reaction to narcotic pain medication, neck positioning during a very long surgery or postoperative dehydration. You should drink plenty of water, and if it does not resolve, see your surgeon and possibly your primary care doctor. Rarely headaches can be caused by life threatening conditions that could be coincidental to surgery and unrelated.

Answer: Headache after tummy tuck It is not normal to have headaches as a result of your tummy tuck. Are you still taking narcotic pain medication? If so this may explain the cause of your headaches. I would discuss this with your surgeon.
