So I'm 10 days post-op and feeling good. Getting in the liquids, walking, and I'm back at work. My abdomen, however, is still looking pretty ugly! Besides the expected bruising, the left part of my abdomen is just shaped weird. It's like I have a "hump". I think this is still swelling, but it's odd. Nothing I'm worried about and I will discuss this w/ Dr at my post-op appointment next week, but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

I had the same weird shaped belly, it's slowly going back to normal though

Mine looked really weird too. And once in a while it still bloats up if I have gas.. (I am almost 6 weeks out). I call it my oompa loompa belly...

You may have a hematoma (pooled blood). I had one under the incision where they removed my tummy and took out the port to my lap-band (I had revision surgery). The area was very swollen and blue. Went to the doc and they said the blood would most likey re-absorb into my body. But the very next day the incision opened up and all that blood came out. Met my doc at the ER and he cleaned out the wound. It had to heal from the inside out after that.

So just watch it and be careful. The majority of the time if it is a hematoma it will go away on its own.
