I know something bruising after surgery is normal, but is it normal that only one of my incisions has bruising and is really tender and feels more sunken in than the other incisions? I'm assuming that's the "main one" and that's where my stomach is, but it doesn't seem to be getting an better.

I had a couple incisions that were sunken in a bit, but mine were not bruised. I believe it’s not uncommon for either but honestly, I would just run it by your team and see if they want to take a look. Maybe you can email a picture.

See, the Enterprise. 🤣🤣

The lines were actually bruising & scrapes. I guess from the instruments. Never had that before.

I had more random scrapes with my revision to SADJ than I did with my sleeve and it was the same surgeon so I thought that was kind of peculiar until I really thought about it. The SADI was robotic and the sleeve was not. My surgeon had many many years more experience doing it laparoscopically than he did doing it robotically so maybe even though the robot is supposedly more precise once it gets down inside of you it’s a little harder to maneuver getting the incisions done? obviously I don’t really know for sure that was just all I could come up with. The good news is I’m two months out now and all the superficial scrapes and scratches are long gone.
