A year ago a had lap band surgery. I've lost 50lbs. I wish I would of had the band years ago. Now I need to take care of this loosie goosie tummy! I will be having TT & lipo on flanks, inner & outer thighs. I went to my PS Dr. Paul Rosenberg about 5 years ago but he recommended I loose 40lbs, at that time I was 217lbs. Now I'm down to 170lbs & more than ready for this! I've always been a thick chic, but before kids never had a tummy, just big butt & thighs which I was happy with! But after 3 c-sections my tummy went south! No amount of exercise will get it down. I'm excited & anxious. I can't say I'm nervous, at least not yet! My PS comes very well recommended, as 3 close friends have had very successful procedures with him. And I feel really confident/comfortable when speaking to him. I know he will get it right! Will post pics when date comes closer, I'm just not ready for that! Hoping my journey will help others, just as I've benefited from reading reviews on RS!

I hope you do not have the complications I have had. My wound has opened and bleeding. I am now almost 4 weeks post op. That is not as bad as the hard swollen places at the groin of both legs. This causes severe pain to sit and getting up. Much worse now than a week post op. I would not wish this my worst enemy. I don't have enemies. I just want to be able to get up and down without pain. Dr says I should be sore but not in pain.

Sorry to here you're in such pain. Hopefully, it's because it's still early in the healing stage. hope you all the best.
lower tummy

Can someone please help me. I had tummy tuck and work on pelvic area. I now have open wound which burns and hurts almost the whole incision from side to side is opening up and draining. I am doing wet to dry dressing twice a day. Now 5 weeks post op
My worst problem is the pelvic area and groin is very hard and swollen. I can not bend my legs to sit without excruciating pain. This hardness is causing my feet legs and ankles to swell. They look like the are going to burst.
My ps said this would not come from surgery and to see my medical doctor.
If I could just sit without pain I could handle the rest. I have called a wound specialist to see if I can get an apt
Could I possibly be doing some rundowns to this hard area? I'm really grasping at straws here.
