Bulging on incision line 6.5 months post-op tummy tuck (Photos)

Asked By:mizzjan0182 in Orlando, Florida

Hello I had a TT 6.5 months ago and I started going back to the gym. I think I may have over done it because I have this bulge on my incision line. It’s soft and it was sensitive to the touch. I’ve been compressing with faja and took antibiotics just to be safe. No discharge or fluids leaking just swollen and red. What did it do? Do I need new stitches or does this heal on its own? Putting silicone gel with compression for now.
