Is intense pulling sensation when standing normal at 2 weeks post-op? (Photo)

November 28, 2018
Asked By:Labrooks in Orlando, FL

I had inner thigh lipo 2 weeks ago. I’m getting and intense pulling sensation when standing after being seated a bit. Normal? I’m 2 weeks post. Intense pulling occurs after I’ve sat for a few minutes. It almost feels like I’m on a short lease. It reminds me of the feeling I had with mondors cord after implants many moons ago (removed a decade ago). Anyhoo, I had inner thigh lipo along with outer thigh and flanks/waist. Inner thighs feel so tight, especially after being seated for any length of time. Is this a normal part of the healing process? Tia
