I am 12 weeks post op and I've noticed that when my husband and I have sex, I seem to swell more; especially in my pubic mound area. The next day, my abs are super sore! Is this normal?
Answer: Sex after tummy tuck Sex can be pretty intense and raises the blood pressure. It might be contributing to swelling. If it bothers you, you might want to take it a little easier. Once you've fully recovered, this should no longer be an issue.

Answer: Tummy Tuck Swelling in Melbourne, Florida After any type of surgery including tummy tuck surgery, it is normal for areas to have a significant amount of swelling which tends to resolve over time and certainly increased activity can increase the swelling. It is also completely expected that it may take quite a bit of time for the swelling to completely resolve. I would discuss this concern in detail with your board certified plastic surgeon. Fortunately, swelling in and of itself does tend to resolve if given enough time.
