Eye Surgery Considerations@eye-think

Abdomen, day 10 review and question

If I lie down and get up, my belly still pulls a lot For reference, I had holes made in two places in front and two on the sides I originally wanted to do only the area under my navel because I didn't like how it folded when I sat down, but when I got up the doctor said they also removed a little bit from the sides...(they said 2000 cc came out; I didn't expect that much. For reference, I'm 166 cm and 61~62 kg - should I call the color yellow-pink fluid? I thought it would be solid like a piece, but they put it in a plastic bag and showed me, and as time passed the blood settled down. I wanted to leave it a bit longer and see how much fat and blood came out, but the nurse thought it looked gross and asked if it could be thrown away, so I told her to throw it away...regret) After the surgery they woke me up and used the tube to suck out phlegm, and it hurt so much in my throat and through my nostrils that I shook my head saying not to do it Since it was general anesthesia, I coughed a lot because of the phlegm, but my belly pulled so much that I couldn't even cough, and my throat itched because of the phlegm so I kept coughing...it was so hard that I kept wondering why I even did this, but when I look at my belly I see that it no longer folds, so it's amazing...since my belly keeps pulling I keep bending forward, so I can't keep my back fully straight and it's really hard. I wore the compression wrap around my belly for a few days after surgery, but breathing was so hard that I took it off completely. Anyway, I wasn't able to eat properly, so there was no way my belly would come out. But they said if I don't wear the wrap around my belly for about 3 months, my body line won't turn out pretty, so I'm starting again now. Breathing is a little uncomfortable, but still, I worked so hard to lose this, right? But seniors, do the scars on the hole areas disappear? And what does it mean when they say it becomes bumpy? Also, because I wore the wrap around my belly, some parts got red too. Will that go away with time? Should I say it's a bit like skin eczema?.. My belly is still really tight and hard. The hospital says it's because there is fluid, and that it will be okay after a month... And I also have a lot of bruising on the back and sides of my waist. I really thought that after surgery, the pain would be solved with medicine once I slept, but that's not the case. Even though I think doing it through exercise and diet control would have been better if it takes time, the lower belly fat doesn't come off well, so I also think I made the right choice. I have mixed feelings...
