I had a tummy tuck one year ago. Then 2 weeks ago went back in for bbl and the dr fixed my belly button from the first time because it was really long and just didn't look right. Now I have this problem and it smells real bad is this an infection what do I do? I'm 6 hours away from my surgeon who did it
