What to do if i had a c-section and now my tummy is bulging out .what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tummy: A bulge in stomach after abdominal surgery or pregnancy could be from splitting the muscles during the procedure ( and the muscles weren't sewn back together), a hernia at the umbilicus or fatty tissue from the break in exercise... See your doctor for an exam to determine which you are dealing with and options to solve it....
