I just had Liposuction and a full Tummy Tuck done a week ago. I'm very pleased with what I've seen so far. However, I have extensive bruising from my hips to my knees, both sides of my stomach area, and the pubic area. How long before these bruises heal, and how can I speed up the healing process?
6 months post ETT, Mons Lift and Muscle Repair with Lipo to loce handles and upper abdomen. No longer swelling in love handles. However still have lump in upper abdomen. Unsure if it could still be swelling or if this is fat. I had significant bruising to love handles from lipo but none on upper abdo. Was the lipo missed? Or is there no bruising becahse the skin is separated from the muscle prior? I still have some loose skin in upper abdo as was due to weight loss not pregnancy.
I had a TT with muscle repair about 9 months ago. On a few occasions when I've been hot, my midline developed strange discoloration. It looks almost like deep bruising. It goes away when I cool down and it doesn't pop up every time I'm hot. It's not painful. I still have mild discomfort when I flex or use my abdominal muscles but nothing unexpected and consistently improving over time. Have you ever seen this? Do you know what caused it? Is it anything I should be worried about?
I coughed and pop I felt my stitches rip with a hot and painful sensation after. It happened three times. I now have a bruise around my navel area. I dont feel as tight as I did after the surgery. Im 6days PO from TT with muscle repair. How could my stitches rip so easy. My belly button is a bit high. I wasnt marked prior to surgery could this placement be a result of no marking?
had a tt w muscular repair 7 months ago. Area under belly button to above incision is still very hard to the touch; it hard like a wooden/steel plate & I feel pain slightly & uncomfortable when I press on it. Besides, area below incision looks like still bruise. I cannot stretch as I wish as its still tight. Is it normal at this stage? how to resolve it? My doctor is in another country; when I write him, he ignores my concerns & says to give more time. Thanks
Not sure if this is a dumb question or not. Im having a tummy tuck this Friday, the other night I realized I never mentioned my vitamin d deficiency to my dr, I guess I didnt think it was that big of a deal. Ive been reading that if you have this that it becomes harder to heal after surgery, injuries take longer- you bruise easily. Ive already left messages for both doctors but havent heard back yet. Is it safe to proceed, will I have a harder time after surgery? Any thoughts?
Since I came home I have had a big bruise under my belly button, it has gotten lighter in color, but 2 days ago it had blisters that popped and now look weird, every time I put my compression garment on they bleed. I did have a horrible allergic reaction to the tape that was placed all over my body. What do you think necrosis ?
