Question 6

is it normal to have a swollen stomach 8 months after a tummy tuck?

Accepted Answer

No: Not from the surgery. You need to get checked out to see if it is related to the surgery or something internal such as the bowel. Sometimes fluid can collect/build up in the tissue after surgery and should be checked out. If not related to the surgery, there are many abdominal conditions that can lead to "swollen stomach". Either way, you need to see your family doctor and surgeon to differentiate.
