Lipo of abdomen, back and rms.

I started wearing a different garment. The last one was not up to par. I’m very compressed. My swelling has not improved much and my arms have that tight itchy feeling. Taking Tylenol 3 times a day.

ORIGINAL POST

Lipo of abdomen, flanks,back & arms

I work out 5 days a week but still had stubborn pockets of fat. I had surgery on 6/27/19. Had a few setbacks. My post surgery garment was not the one I expected, it had a panty bottom. I was specifically told my garment will go a little above my knees. My arm bandages kept coming off & my arms swole pretty big. Day 1 was not bad, I just slept. I began to swell out of the garment. I was instructed to drink tons of Gatoraid which contains tons of sodium but replenishes electrolytes. I developed a lot of swelling under the panty garment where I was NOT suctioned. I purchased a compression sleeve for my arms. The doctor just wrapped them in ace bandages. I returned to doctor a week later & was given a new compression garment. Now that I finally have the right compression, I’m hoping he selling goes own soon. The discomfort on a scale of 1-10 is a 6. I’m actually bigger than I was pre op so I’ll wait for the swelling to subside.
