4days post op from tummy tuck I have question???

Is having bad gas normal? How can I get rid of it I'm walking like they said to do!

Also how long before you have a BM? Sorry just curious!

Is it normal for me to have swollen thighs and ankles? 
Thanks any tips would help!

All your symptons are normal at this point. Just remember to take some stool softners if you can. it took about five days before I had my first bm also drink plenty of water. Congrates on your surgery you will be pleased Iam four weeks out still swollen but way better than I was preop.
good luck

My body was swollen and my ankles were real bas but as I was in hospital I had my legs bandaged with ace bandages and had to elevate them.

My doc had me in an all in one girdle from thighs to rib cage so that there wouldn't be leg swelling, too.  I never had a problem with the legs and ankles.  Miralax works wonders for regularity.  GasX works great for gas.  I hope you are as delighted with your results as I am.
