Uneven bulge on one side post tummy tuck - what could this be? (Photo)

July 11, 2024

Had tummy tuck Feb 2024. Bulge noticed immediately after. Had liposuction 3 weeks ago to address excess fat in upper abdomen. Left side noticeably bulges out more than right in side profile view. When I run my hand down the left side on my tummy, I can feel a hard lump that is not present on my right side. I have lost 5 lbs since the operation. It's more noticeable after I eat or in the evening. What could this be? Is it my organs on my left side pushing out? Why is one side so different ?
