It has been 15 days since my mommy makeover surgery, and I'm healing well. However, I still experience some swelling and feel very bloated. Additionally, I started my period today, which has worsened the bloating sensation. I'm currently taking norco, Valium, and daily Zoloft (for reasons unrelated to the surgery). Can I take diurex to help alleviate the bloating feeling? I feel like I'm tightly packed, similar to a sausage in a girdle casing.
Thank you for your question! It's great to hear that your recovery is progressing well. Some post-operative swelling is normal at this stage and will gradually subside over the next few months. Regarding your concern, it is best to discuss it with your plastic surgeon. Different physicians may recommend different approaches to recovery, including rest, hydration, nutrition, and possibly avoiding diuretics. Additionally, consider any potential interactions with other medications. An in-person examination by a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to assess your needs and receive expert medical advice. Best of luck!
Thank you for your question. It is important to follow up with your board-certified plastic surgeon regarding your concerns. Self-medicating can be harmful, so it is always best to seek professional advice and guidance.
