Asked By:BerBeroo in UK

Had extended thigh lift (& lipo) and an arm lift 7 wks ago. Thighs are very tight at scar line with large hard sore lumps;constant pain around the areas where lipo completed. Arms tight with one arm in particular having extensive “numb” pain from my elbow down to my wrist; jagging needle type pain in my underarm. Surgeon advised recovering well 3 weeks ago and ended care. Told final swelling and numbness would go away in 6 months. Do my scars look normal at this stage? Is this pain normal?
