Swollen and hard lower stomach 4 months post op tummy tuck. Normal?

March 6, 2014
Asked By:SaranGN in Wollongong, AU

From under my scar to the pubic bone is swollen and very firm to touch. Some days if I wear tight clothing I think I look pregnant. I'm a shift worker and I've noticed after working a 4 day block my tummy swells even bigger. My work pants aren't tight around my waist and at present I'm still on restricted duties due to my work type. A strip down the centre of my stomach is still numb too. Is this normal?
