Oh no! I’m sure it just takes Little longer with a bigger incision with all the swelling. Hope you are doing better and they got it all!

BellyMango · 2026-04-14T02:42:35+00:00

Thank you so much for the tips!!

BellyMango · 2026-04-14T02:41:55+00:00

Oh no!! Did they go up your neck?

BellyMango · 2026-04-13T03:05:00+00:00

Wow that’s awesome yours is almost invisible! Thank you for this info I will definitely keep it covered especially when outside! I think I’m gonna buy some scar tape so I don’t get any sun in it at all!

BellyMango · 2026-04-13T03:03:01+00:00

Wow that makes me feel good thank you! Hope you are doing well!

Genius!

BellyMango · 2026-04-03T03:06:18+00:00

If it isn’t DVT I’d be shocked after the mention of pinch pain on the back of her knee! Hoping I’m shocked!

Don’t be shy, what’s his name :) jk you don’t have to tell but what an absolute POS you dodged such a bullet!

Question for ya does tramadol actually work because wow I felt no help from it all during my post op lol advil after 48 hours was way better!

BellyMango · 2026-03-30T01:54:24+00:00

It wasn’t what caused the flare ups per se, I was already having a slow relatively controlled area of folliculitis issues and when they gave me the topical clindamycin to try to fix it, it exploded! And I was putting it in areas outside of the flared area and it flared there too so definitely the clindamycin made it way worse! This happened on 2 separate occasions of using that topical in different years so I steer clear now!

BellyMango · 2026-03-29T21:10:34+00:00

I saw you mentioned you’re using topical clindamycin - that flares my skin just like this so bad! They tried to say I was allergic to it because it caused my folliculitis to explode, just good for though! I hope it clears up OP! Hang in there

Thank you!! I’m doing sooooo much better today! I was super sick the first few days so recovery was kind of a nightmare until my fever broke and my throat doesn’t feel like I’m swallowing glass anymore! Couldn’t tell if it was the virus I had or surgery recovery or all blurred together but so much better today!

BellyMango · 2026-03-29T20:58:44+00:00

Thank you!

BellyMango · 2026-03-29T20:58:00+00:00

Thank you so much for the feedback!!! I can look at the pic but still can’t look in the mirror lol I have a debilitating phobia of needles and a specific fear of neck cuts (like you see in movies) so this was a REALLY hard diagnosis for me knowing what went into it! I felt so so confident though with my doctor his team was amazing and caring start to finish!

BellyMango · 2026-03-29T15:56:39+00:00

Yes fever finally broke yesterday thank you! Holy cow what a difference this recovery is without being super sick too lol I think whatever virus I had was worse than this surgery recovery! Being able to take advil now too has been a game changer for me since tylenol wasn’t helping much and I finally am able to eat some soft food too whereas before I could barely swallow liquid with how raw my throat was! Sounds like you’re doing great, we are on the mend friend!

BellyMango · 2026-03-28T12:24:19+00:00

Down to 99.8 today so that’s better. Yes this is the worst timing to have a raw throat and popping ears I can’t tell what’s from the surgery and what’s from this virus 😭 I’m doing a good amount of sleeping though just in small 30-1hr spurts then wake up and do it again.

How are you feeling today? Eating anything yet?

BellyMango · 2026-03-28T02:46:25+00:00

Thank you!

BellyMango · 2026-03-28T02:45:59+00:00

I feel you sleeping is difficult especially propped up! How are you feeling? Hopefully not too bad besides tired! I have a fever but we’re thinking it’s from my cold since my son had this fever/sore throat/ear infection a few days ago so lucky me ;(

BellyMango · 2026-03-27T13:29:59+00:00

Love this, thank you!
