Hi all! It's 3 months post op for me. I am feeling great! I've been going back to the gym but doing light exercises. Since my last update, I've lost about 8 lbs and all my clothes fit perfectly! I love the no muffin top and the no belly bulging out. Here's an updated pic. I wish all of my stretchmarks were gone but it looks much better what I had before. As for scar treatment, I am using the mepitac silicone tape and Cica Solution Scar Glide in addition to applying coconut oil and olive oil. My belly button still looks dark, will that go away? Does anyone know if I can use bleaching agents on my scar to lighten it? Hope is well. Take care.

Tummy Tuck 1 Month Post Op

jayia

I am exactly one month post op since my tummy tuck surgery. I just had my left drain removed on Monday since the drainage was less than 20cc in 24hrs. My ps doesn't want to remove the tight drain and instead changed out the right drain bulb with a new bc the old one was too yucky on the inside and he couldn't tell if the fluid was cloudy or not. Also, there are yellow stuff inside my drain tubes. This stuff looks like yellow fatty tissues but I am not sure what it is and my ps isnt sure either. I am taking an antibiotic to counter any infection. I have attached a picture of my drain bulb. Is the fluod color a good indicator that the drain is ready to be remove?

Well, just as I thought it can only get better each day I suddenly came down with cold chills and now I am running a fever of 100. Also, I still have both my drains. My ps will remove the drains next Tuesday and he called in an antibiotic for my fever. This is no fun. I hope it's nothing serious and hope to heal with no more complications. :-/

I'm sorry you're feeling poorly- keep resting and taking good care of yourself. I'm sure it's just a bug. You will feel so much better once your drains are out next week. Keep your chin up and happy healing!

You're right I need to drink more water. That was my fault. I went hours without water that's probably why. I am drinking more water every hour and slowly regaining my strength. Thank you for the well wishes and advice.
