Improved Back Pain Following Tummy Tuck Surgery

 It is common to misdiagnose back pain that actually originates from a weaking of the abdominal muscles.  This type of pain is characterized by a inward curvature of the lower spine with point tenderness.  In many cases an abdominoplasty will improve this type of pain.  

An abdominoplasty with repair of the separation or widening of the gap between the rectus abdominis muscles may help to alleviate some types of back pain. Pain, in and of itself is sometime difficult to properly diagnose. Relief of back pain should not be your primary goal in undergoing a tummy tuck, but many are pleased when it does in fact get better
