I want to know if this is normal bruising or necrosis. I had a tummy tuck with lipo of the flanks 6 days ago. 2 days post operation i saw a blue spot by my pubic area, 3 P.O it turned purple with a black spot by the T incision, 4 P.O the big incision also got some black spots in it. I don't smoke, live very healthy and have no diabetics. Do you think the purple spot turns black? And is there necrotic tissue visible in my pictures? Picture 1 is a picture showing 3,4 and 6 P.O Do you think the purple spot gets necrotic and becomes a hole?
