2 and a half weeks and lumpy? Should I be massaging myself?

Question

I am 2 and a half weeks post bbl and still very stiff and lumpy in my abdomen, sides and back. I also feel a stretching feeling in my back when I bend over, should I push thru the awkward feeling and still bend anyway? Should I be massaging myself in the stiff and lumpy areas?

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early on the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation is normal.
I suggest my patients try the lymphatic massages and to use a full body compression garment, 24/7 for the first 3 months, and after that, for 12 hours a day for 3 more months, to get the best results.
It is important for the compression garment to be very tight, for it to help with the swelling, after surgery. Please, follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)
