Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- 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.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Can walk for longer, no more back pain, only a little sore when I try to use my abs to get up or when I sneeze. I can stand straight.
Tummy tuck after 4 kids! 34 year old 170lb 5'5"
I've had four kids last kid is 2. Am 34 years old no c sections. I had tummy tuck done on April 1st 2025. So far so good, still swollen.
Day 1 PO - slept most of the day, didn't feel much pain due to not moving around much, sleeping, and anesthesia.
Day 2 PO - burning pain in muscle repair areas is the worse other pain is just like did a bunch of ab exercises on sides of abdomen and middle. Incision doesn't hurt at all. Lower abdomen is numb (normal). Two drains are still in. Walking like a hunchback at 40 degree hunch.
Day 3 PO - feeling more burning pain in top part of muscle repair especially when standing. 40 degree hunch back. Can tolerate standing only for like 5 minutes then back hurts and need to sit.
Day 4 PO - back pain is sooooo real. Hunch back is 50 degrees so better but the posture hurts my muscles in my back. Two drains still in. Can stand for longer. Burning pain is till there. Ab muscles not so bad anymore.
Day 5 PO - back pain is a little better, can stand for longer 60 degrees hunch back lol.
Day 7 PO - almost completely straight when walking, burning pain is periodic, feels tight when I try and straighten my back out more, but I don't want to ruin my incision so being careful. One drain was taken out.
Day 8 PO - can walk for much longer and back pain is significantly better.
Day 9 PO - walking more did shopping on scooter.
Day 10 PO - walking more and more burning pain still intermittent, still tight, still swollen.
