Fever after a mommy makeover, is this common?

February 16, 2017
Asked By:Greenlilly13 in Peoria, IL

Yesterday I had a full tummy tuck with muscle repair, and breast implant exchange. Today I started running a low fever 100.3. I called my PS and he said I can take what I need to reduce it. I took 2 ibuprofen. He said if it's not gone by tomorrow I would have to meet him at the hospital. Is this common?
