I am on day 3 of having really sharp pain in the center of my upper abdomen. I am 2 months post op from full tummy tuck. I did work out on Wed. so I thought maybe I over did it and it's just sore, but three days later I still have the pain. Should I be concerned and see my Doctor? I hate to bother if I'm just sore. Thank you!

Answer: Tummy Tuck Post Op Discomfort Thank you for your question. Sorry to hear you are having discomfort. The muscles may just be sore or having spasms from your workout, but I think you should be evaluated by plastic surgeon. Hope this helps.

Answer: Talking to your surgeon about pain You should always feel comfortable enough with your plastic surgeon to discuss any post-operative changes or issues that are bothering you. Pain can be normal after a tummy tuck, particularly with exercise, but it still warrants an examination if you are uncomfortable. Avoid doing any strenuous activity or motions which exacerbate the pain until you have a chance to contact your physician.
