14 months post liposuction 360 and I still feel numbness in back area. Should I be concerned?

Asked By:Cool705295 in New York, New York

I had lipo 360 on August 3, 2021. While the numbness to my stomach has subsided, I still experience numbness and tingling in my back. I was 39 when I had the procedure, and experienced a lot of blood loss. Following the surgery, I needed a blood transfusion. Not sure if these things are relevant, just covering all bases. Is this normal after so much time has passed?
