Hi Everyone!
I started working out and eating healthier last week. I do a full body massage on myself before I get out of bed in the morning. I had a major hysterectomy where they basically fileted me like fish because when I had my son via c-section 20 years ago, it wasn't done right and I had scar tissue as far up as my liver and kidneys. It's been seven months, and when I go to massage my stomach, it still feels really swollen, which is depressing.
Does anyone have advice on how to get the swelling to finally go away? I appreciate any advice you can give me![:) :)](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/smile.png)

This seems like something you need to discuss with a doctor or surgeon rather then people on the internet.0

I'd go and speak to your Doctor. If its a complication of the surgery the Doctor is the only one who could give you informed and safe advice0

I know a guy that knows a guy whose wife had the same thing. She ate grapefruits.0
