Pain in Right Flank Area After Lipo

June 16, 2010
Asked By:girlygirl74 in san diego

I had lipo under general anesthesia on June 4th. All is good so far but of course the usual swelling & soreness. But I have a sharp stabbing pain on my right side flank area which was lipo'd. Only when I bend that way or touch the area. What could it possibly be?
