I'm feeling almost 100% normal except for this binder. Booty getting softer and rounding out

Post op visit
Today I went for my 2nd postop visit and unfortunately I still have fluid :( Olga the nurse at Dr Hughes office said I had 20 ccs last postop and today she took out about 22 ccs. I can't believe it I have been wear the binder 24-7 except to shower. So I have to wear binder for 1 more week, so frustrating. I can't wear any nice clothes because you can see the binder so I'm in tshirt an loose fitting pants.

Sorry to hear that. Did they tell you if there was anything that could of been done different? Or why after two weeks you still have fluid?
Sorry to hear about your fluid & you having to wear the binder another week, I know the feeling, I think the binder was the worst part about recovery for me, but the binder is a necessary evil. Just make sure you keep wearing it correctly and if you feel in a couple of days that the fluid is gone ask to go in sooner, maybe by Thursday or Friday.
Olga said I wasn't wearing it tight enough on my lower abdomen that's the only place I have fluid. So I have to wear it super tight in that area. Olga wants me to keep the binder on until I have no more fluid so my stomach will heal with no lumps or bumps. Thanks mesan I'm going to call see if they can see me Monday
Hope all that fluid gets out. I'm sure you'll be in a bathing suit in no time :) have you tried the lymphatic massages? I read that those are good to take out the fluid.
Yeah that's a common problem. We all wear it higher than we should because we're scared to put the pressure on our butts. But it doesn't hurt it, we just have to trust they know why they require us to wear the binder a certain way, they know better. I'm sure they'll see u before. And just be patient, it's just a couple more days, trust me it's all worth it. Btw you're not supposed to get massages until Olga approves, the massage will actually make the fluid pocket worse, that's what Olga told me.
I hope so too I don't think I will feel normal until I get out of this binder! No I'm going to look for a place close to home so I can start them thanks :)
Really? I'm glad you told me, I guess every surgeon has there own set rules or protocol. And that's exactly how I felt! Like it was putting to much pressure on my butt so I would move the back part of binder higher up lol darn
