Tender bulge above belly button after tummy tuck with muscle repair.

Asked By:rachelbufano in Toms River, NJ

I am 4 months post op from tummy tuck with muscle repair. I have a tender, somewhat painful bulge above my belly button that gets worse if I work out or go without wearing daily compression. I'm worried about a hernia or failed muscle repair.
