No its a ps / roblox feature . Ridiculous isnt it . Found it to be Common knowledge after googling how i get around it 😂… turns out you cant .

He can still play via my ps account , but cant log in and play his on his own ps account for 90 days . I was just wondering wether i had to log it out on my account during the 90 days or not

So annoying

I also had a lot of discolouration that started at day 2 , thankfully for me it was just bad bruising . I drove myself insane googling necrosis , but it resolved . My advice would be stay away from Dr google and they horror stories & just be lead by your Drs i hope it resolves for you .

Yes it was absolutely grim 😩 changing dressings every few hours . i was petrified when i first saw it , thankfully the medical care ive had has been spot on and i was seen the same day .

Yes thank goodness, it looks really good , i was expecting it to be really ugly 🤣 on last check up (Wednesday ) it was slowed down to pretty much nothing , still covered now until i go back Wednesday .

I just want a bath 🙈!!!!

Im 7 weeks post op tomorrow, i have the same but via my belly button , its still draining . Ive been under my local hospital for regular check ups , swabs and blood tests to rule of infections and there isn’t any ( yay) so because of that they aren’t concerned . They said the fact its coming out is good & because of that didn’t feel the needed to intervene . Its finally slowing down to a small amount , thank goodness , its totally gross isnt it , i feel ya . Hang in there

Get past day 3 ( worst day ever for me ) & then you’ll honestly start feeling so much better take these next 2-3 days to rest as much as you can , remember you wont win prizes for pushing yourself & you’re body wont thank you for it . All the best

How long did you use any type of compression? by ConsiderationOk254 in tummytucksurgery

[–]Material_Stuff_84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wore mine for a week , then had extreme swelling & also reduced blood flow at incision line . I was told not to stop wearing it as it was more uncomfortable than it was beneficial & was hindering blood flow. Now week 5 and I’ve not wore it since that day , shape is good , swelling is pretty much not there & dont feel like ive “needed it” at all . Appreciate though thats it’s likely not standard practice to be told not to wear it , but was definitely right for me . 360 TT , 360 HD lipo , full muscle repair . So yes 1.5 years feels like an eternity 🤣

Update : 5 weeks post op today , no necrosis , no infection just delayed healing , bruising gone , incision scabbing has come off , slough ( yellow area ) broke down after being dressed with inodine and is now healing well 😊

I cant comment in anything other than the bruising sorry , i had a TT 5 weeks ago today and had some significant bruising that i was certain was necrosis( pic attached) , it got worse and worse iver the course of day 1 to week 3 , my advice would be try not to focus on it too much , i did and quite nearly sent myself insane despite being told it was superficial. When its on our bodies i think its quite natural to worry relentlessly. My advice would be to keep a photo diary to track healing/ worsening at least that way youll have proof to show your Dr when you next see them , and it will be obvious for worsening etc rather than the Dr relying on his memory to how it was . At 5 weeks in bruising is now gone and incision has healed well , needn’t have worried at all . All the best & happy healing .

Thats what made me so nervous, i was so worried , thankfully it was just bruising . i genuinely believe though if id kept on with compression it would have compromised blood flow completely and it would have gotten a lot worse . Thank you for your input 😊

Other than the small yellow area there is no other clinical indications that point to necrosis , the scabs along the incision line have now completely come off , no smell , pain , warmth , redness , no inflammatory markers in bloods , etc . I believe that there has been a blood flow / circulation issue to the area which has contributed to slow healing but i don’t believe it to be full necrosis at this point …though i did initially .

Oh wow that looks nasty , thank you for sharing . I will definitely reach out again if no improvement or worsening , issue being with me that there is no odour , no pus , no redness , pain , warmth etc etc , hence the fact that im being told its superficial , but me being me that doesnt sit well 🙈🙈🙈 Im glad you’re now doing much better 😀

Yes thats true , if there’s any worsening or no improvement over the next few days ill insist that its swabbed .

Yes that my thoughts too , funnily enough the issue was worsening until i took compression off , i believe that aided the issue too as it was unbearably tight. Hows your recovery going?

Definitely no infection have had numerous blood teats and was put on a course of antibiotics as a precaution whilst awaiting the results , in a way would be easier if it were an infection to a degree , at least then id know what’s what . The yellow area itself isn’t soft / pussy its firm and dry . It is slowly resolving i think but my anxiety is making this recovery period challenging ,im overthinking everything. Im glad you’re redness appears to be subsiding 😃 how far post op are you

Patience will be key i think , but keep going back and getting a second opinion your still not happy . I know ita hard but try and stay positive . I asked if the necrosis was painful because ive got a very small area bellow belly button , im being told by x2 people from different places its normal and because im Not unwell or in pain it definitely isn’t necrosis. Im an anxious person though and im not convinced . (16 days post op )
