Bushlander Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 So I'm almost Week 8 post-op from my Mummy Makeover and I've noticed that after I eat a big meal (usually dinner) my tummy goes numb. Maybe it's more noticeable because my tummy bloats from eating too much food as I don't really notice the numbness after other meals. It usually stays numb for a couple of hours after I finish eating. Does anybody else get this? Also wondering how much of something someone would have to do to pop a hernia after a tummy tuck? I've had two scenarios where I've over-exerted myself and have noticed that it affected my tummy, not so much pain wise, but more uncomfortable and made me too frightened to stand up straight in case I do (or have already done) any damage. I scored my first hernia when I was Week 6 post-op by transplanting a rather large cycad plant. But I'm wondering what would it take for the existing hernia (or a fresh one) to appear now after my tummy has been ripped to shreds and is so weak. I'm so ****ing paranoid of getting another hernia. Every little twinge has me on edge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lulu78 Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Bushlander, I have no idea about hernias, sorry. But the tummy numbness.. Mine is numb all over! I don't think there's a particular time of day when it's worse, it's just numb all the way around my belly button and the entire section of the scar by a couple of inches. I don't know if I'm more prone to numbness - I never got feeling back in a large portion of my tummy after my first caesarian and I know other people who have full feeling after theirs. Good luck and just continue taking it easy. Speak to your surgeon about the hernia concerns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
