What to do In Case of an After Tummy Tuck Complication

Your surgeon should give you a list of instructions to follow after your abdominoplasty surgery. This usually will include numbers to call in an emergency and a list of possible complications that warrant such a phone call.

Contact your surgeon or the on-call physician immediately if you notice any of the following:

Bleeding from your suture lines
Pus or cloudy discharge from your incision areas, navel or elsewhere
A very foul odor from your incision areas, navel or elsewhere
Uncontrollable pain
Blisters or suture "popping"
Temperature over 101° F
Inability to urinate or defecate
Numbness of the arms or legs
Uncontrollable dizziness not related to the pain relievers

Contact your surgeon or the on-call physician AND go to the emergency room as soon as possible if you notice any of the following:

Passing blood through urine, feces or spitting up blood
Abrupt and severe swelling and discoloration (This is not normal swelling, but swelling that comes on suddenly.)
Blackening of the skin
Uncontrollable vomiting
Loss of consciousness not related to sedatives
Temperature over 105° F
Convulsions

What to do in case of a complication:

STAY CALM
Have your emergency numbers handy and contact (or have your caregiver contact) your surgeon or the on-call physician to let them know of your problem as soon as you can.
If you are going to the emergency room, don't forget to tell your surgeon WHICH hospital you are going to.
Bring all of your medications or a list of them with you to the hospital
If you are going to the hospital, take a small overnight bag with a change of clothes "just in case," but do not take a lot of time to do this. Getting to the hospital is more important than anything you will bring with you.
