I'm approximately 2 weeks and 3 days post tummy tuck. About a week into the recovery, I started experiencing mild migraines at least twice a day. Tylenol has helped, and my surgeon says I'm healing well, but I forgot to mention the headaches during my appointment. Is this normal? I also had liposuction, a breast lift, and augmentation with 385cc implants due to breastfeeding.
I appreciate your question. Headaches are not a common symptom two weeks after an abdominoplasty. Common causes of headaches could be dehydration, calorie depletion, or a reaction to pain medications. If you experience headaches in the early afternoon, it may be helpful to increase your caloric intake. I suggest discussing your concerns with your plastic surgeon.
There can be many reasons for headaches. Stress and surgery can trigger headaches, and certain individuals are more susceptible. I recommend consulting your plastic surgeon to see if there are any changes you can make to your daily routine that might improve the situation.
Headaches after body cosmetic surgery should resolve within a few days and are often related to caffeine withdrawal or the effects of anesthesia or pain medications. If you experience migraine-type headaches, consult with your surgeon about taking your migraine medications, as they could potentially lead to bleeding at the surgical site.
Headaches after plastic surgery could be related to anesthesia, medication reaction, positioning, or dehydration. Drinking plenty of water is recommended, and if headaches persist, consulting with the surgeon and primary care doctor is advised.
