Asked By:jay8320 in Waukesha, WI

I had my tummy tuck and lipo 3 days ago. Everything seems normal and ok except now I am experiencing vaginal pain, and seem to be pretty swollen down there as well. I am not sure if a catheter was used or not. It's the weekend, so I do not want to bother her if this is normal. Thanks in advance.
