Undoing muscle repair - can this be reversed & corrected?

June 20, 2022
Asked By:Mira_Laila11 in Saskatchewan, Canada

I had a drainless tummy tuck over three years ago and my muscle repair is too tight. Its affected my ability to stand up straight, my mobility and how my body functions. I can't even fully stretch out when sleeping. It's as if my stomach is doing a permanent abdominal crunch. It feels like I'm falling forwards because its pulled so tight. There is so much pressure on my lower back that I can't stand for long periods of time. Can this be reversed and corrected? Thank-you.
