Today, the vehicle I was riding in was sideswiped by a motorist. I captured the license plate number. When my driver was able to pull over, he showed up about 15 minutes after the impact. I reported the accident, and requested to transported to the nearest ER. I am numb in the affected area, it was difficult for me to identify possibly injured areas. Their observations did not show anything of concern. Thanks.
Answer: MVA! You need to see your plastic surgeon for a full evaluation. Signs such as bruising, pain, and fevers would be a concern. Best wishes, Dr. Aldo

Answer: Motor vehicular accident 5 days po TT I am sorry to hear about the accident you were involved in. Given that you were seen in the emergency room, I am sure that potentially serious problems were ruled out.

Answer: Trauma after tummy tuck ... complications to look after. Thanks for sharing your question. I can appreciate your concern. the main complication to be concerned is bleeding, that will be shown as bruising. If adequate testing was done and you do not have significant increase in pain, then it seems that no major injuries happened. Make sure that your Dr. is aware of your process. Finally, make sure that you have a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. Wishing you the best in your journey
