Severe hip pain radiating down my back a year after my Brazilian Butt Lift - advice?

Dear Grbgrl2000,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Hi, Grbgrl2000!
The deformity in your pelvis sounds like different than the knots on your groin area, which makes us think about lymph nodes. These lymph nodes may enlarge after an operation and stay big for some time.First of all, your photos and reports should be examined. In the light of this information, it will be useful for you to be evaluated your anatomical structure and be made a comment that will guide you accurately.

Whether your symptoms are related to your BBL or not plastic surgeons are probably not the right doctors to manage your symptoms at this point. There’s no revision or reversing the BBL that’s going to solve your neurological or pain issues.
I suggest consulting with a pain specialist. Ideally if you can find someone who has training in neurology and pain management that would be a perfect combination.
Work up needs to include an MRI of your lower spine.
Talk to your primary care doctor in terms of getting a referral to the right doctors.
Best,
Mats Hagstrom MD
