I am currently 8 months post op Tummy Tuck and sometimes while brushing my teeth I gag. This causes something in my stomach to tighten up really tight. Feels like a Charlie horse. Never had this issue before Tummy Tuck. What can this be?
I read that it is not normal to have abdominal muscle spasms when youre over one year post op , but what are some reasons you could be having muscle spasms i get them sometimes when I sit up or laugh too hard .
I had abdominal plasty done in March 2018, I did tell my surgeon after coming to see him to let him know about the spasms in my stomach. He told me overtime that would go away well here it is March 2023 and I still have muscle spasms they havent gone away and they get worse on the left and right. Nothing has been addressed I feel Ive been put out to pasture if you call it because there is really no answer to my question prove me wrong. Why is this still occurring?
I had tummy tuck with muscle repair 2 years ago. My waistline is extremely tight-feels like a very tight wire/rope is attached my belly button and pulled tightly around my entire wait. It is so tight that my right side ( front and back) burns, making it hard to sit and sleep. Feels like I am being cut in half at the waist. Perhaps, related I get extreme muscle spams if I turn too quickly. Shadow where linea nigra used to be now visibly off center. What is going on?
I'm 2 weeks post tummy tuck with lipo of flanks and bra area I received my compression garment after wearing an abdominal binder for 14 days. The garment felt extremely tight and after a few hours I had to take it off. when I had the garment on, areas other than the incision that were never numb before started to lose sensation. I also started feeling muscle spasms in my back that I never had before. A few minutes after I took it off everything felt better.
So ever since tt, I have had all day muscle spasms that just do not go away. I have times where I just eat a salad,and become extremely bloated. I have had Ultrasound and CT scans and bloodwork done, and no answers. Any ideas? What kind of Dr should I see? Another strange thing is, I constantly pull some sort of muscle when I stretch or lean over , or even sneeze.. my stomach literally contracts, as my entire family has witnessed. It is undyingly painful as it lasts for several minutes. Help !
Discomfort or sharp shooting pain when I get up or move a certain way. Feels tight and thick especially when I lay down. I havent lifted anything heavy. All I have done is baby myself and walk 5-10 min once or twice a week. Im not sure if its cause I was reaching up or if Im straining when I get in & out of seat or bed. I have never really had any help. Im standing straight now. Its all. I feel the more I stand straight, the more its hurts. What should I do, besides go running to see my doctor?
They put me on muscle relaxers, got better then they started again a week later. I was getting 20-30 a day, when I sat, laid down or drove a car. 2 weeks later (5 wks post op) I was put on muscle relaxers for 2weeks and are better. I am down to 1-2 a day. Wear a compression garment to drive. Oblique area feels like the muscle is twisting. Very uncomfortable. when will all this get better? I am 14 weeks post op.
