I had laparascopic surgery two weeks ago and am finally healing up. The bandages are off but my bellybutton is still a little bruised and discolored. There are still internal sutures, so I'm a little swollen. My bellybutton was once a cute little slit but now there's a scar forming underneath it which makes it look a little different. Watch as I rub lotion over my belly button, hoping it gets back to normal soon!
