- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

After a 90lb weight loss after gastric bypass 2...
After a 90lb weight loss after gastric bypass 2 years ago I decided it was time to get rid of the excess skin I had in my lower abdomen.
After my surgery I experienced some pain, I did have a pain pump and kept on top of the pain meds so as to not let the pain become unbearable.
I am almost 3 weeks out and for the 1st time I am experiencing some extreme pain on the left side where the incision was closed with staples. I think it may be the start of an infection. I did call the PS office and was told to clean the area with Hibiclens and use Bacitacin ointment on the area until I can see the PS on Monday morning.
I have posted pics do know that once the swelling goes down I will be very happy with the final result.

Ok so I don't think I have an infection. The spot that was bothering me started to drain fluid last night. What a relief, pain is still there, but has subsided considerably. Will be seeing PS on Monday morning. Just hoping nothing serious is going on!
