Asked By:bigblueyes76 in Palm Beach, Florida

Im little over 1yr tummy tuck revision. pretty sure im going through menopause. Ive gotten my period 2x a month, last 3 months. W/that said ive gained 5-6lbs. I do not feel well. My stomach is distended/bloated. Nothing fits well. Yesterday (mon) noticed a light redish bruise. Today (tue) i saw Dr for kenalong injection. he said i may have pulled a suture. After the injection the bruise is darker. Could this weight gain make a suture pull/rip the repair? This is my 3rd, i cant do any more fixing
