8 weeks tomorrow- NUMB!! Started by: AmberM

I still have numbness in the same area and am 5 1/2 weeks a post op x

Hi Amber, Its one of the hardest things to deal with afterwards is the nerve damage. I have read it can take anywhere from 3 months to two years to repair. But it is normal to feel numbness or sensitivity afterwards. Research nerve damage and repair, there are lots of vitimans and foods you cant take to help nerves to heal. I’m only 3 weeks PO and and my right boob is kinda numb but also sensitive underneath and both nipples are sensitive. I am drinking loads of ginger tea, hope this will help the nerves to heal.
hope everything is ok for you, you will see your surgeon next month and he will be able to give you advice xx

Haha mine are totally numb nerve damage is the worst! When I had vaser lipo on my thighs the tops of my feet went numb and I only got feeling back after about 6 months…so strange how your body reacts, hope I don’t have numb boobs for that long lol! X

im the same. and my left is worse than my right. my nipples are so sensitive still but under my boob completely numb lol i want to feel my boobies hahahaha

I had a tummy tuck 14 years ago and the surgeon said I would be numb from the belly button to the pubic bone.I am used to it but I suppose it’s a completely different area that doesn’t matter.
