Tummy Tuck + Sodium Q&A

I have had bowel movements, I have a very low sodium diet and drink plenty of water. My doctor's office recommended I try to be more active, which i did as best as I can as Im only on day 4 post surgery and it still doesn't seem to be draining anymore. I'm starting to feel my tummy area is swelling. Should I be worried?

12 days post op Tummy Tuck

I am purchasing a Nutribullet so I can ensure I have the proper nutrients during post-op recovery of tummy tuck. How will this impact swelling if I have no sodium until 6 weeks post-op?

I had a tummy tuck with lipo on the 7th of December. And have been on a low sodium diet since then. For how long more do I need to be on a low sodium diet to avoid swelling etc? Your advice is apprecaited.

I know I am suppose to decrease my salt intake after my tummy tuck surgery to help reduce swelling. How many milligrams of sodium per day is a safe amount? I'm 5'3 160lb and about one week post op.
