Could I have damaged my tummy tuck muscle repair?

October 8, 2018
Asked By:momtwins in Toronto, ON

During the second week of tummy tuck recovery, I felt a slight strain on one side of my abdominals when I mistakenly tried to adjust my recliner by myself. Ever since, that side has felt sensitive - as if I can feel the muscle is inflamed or somehow slightly out of place. There is no change in my profile. What could have happened? Will that side heal differently? What can I do? Could I have done damage that I can't see?
