Pain around entire rib cage after trunk lipo to remove bra fat side boob area. Now legs feel swollen and numb. Post op day 1

Asked By:sirvanix in Yakima, WA

I had trunk lipo to remove my side boob bra area fat today. The left side had leaked consistently for about 6 hours. There was a lot of blood at incision site. Nurse said ok to change the gauze. The right side hurts worse than the left but no drainage on right. I'm wearing my compression garment but my entire rib cage hurts all the time. Now my legs feel swollen and whole legs hurting. No fever but pain meds not helping and worried about legs. I'm 35, healthy no heart or any health issues. Help!
