Can tummy tuck help IC symptoms?

Jenlou101
I have a severe case of IC, I am flare free about a week per month. Diet control, medicines NOTHING has helped.. I have a nearly 1 inch gap between my stomach muscles between kids and was told the weakness in my abdomen wall could ex triggering my flares.. Is there anything that shows a tummy tuck can HELP ic patients??
