Last November 2023, I had 360 lipo and abdominal plastic surgery. since then I was hoping the pain would subside and the bulge/swelling will go down. I wore compression as asked 4 weeks only he said but there was still lots of swelling so i still wore at nights. The pain comes from across my back towards right side all the way to the incision. Tightness pulling dull pain as if the muscles are moving. I tried lymphatic, massages, self massages, vits&minerals. I will appreciate any information.
