I have a bulge in my lower abdomen that's worse on my right side. My PCP sent me to get a CT scan but it doesn't show anything abnormal. I'm so confused what's going on wit my lower abdomen this far out after surgery?

Answer: Post tummy tuck bulge Thank you for your question and photos! My question to you would be, how far out from surgery are you? Also, have you gained any weight? I recommend that you visit your surgeon for an in person exam and discuss your concerns. Best of luck!

Answer: Lower abdomen It's difficult to tell what may be causing the protrusion of the lower abdomen without an examination. It could be fluid build up (seroma), excess fat, or perhaps the abdominal wall correction failed. The resolution will be based on the underlying problem. I encourage you to return to your plastic surgeon for an evaluation.
