exploratory' surgery'

I had exploratory surgery because I was rushed to emergency due to extreme pain on morning. I just had my first child 5 weeks before, and it was 1976 I was age 21. I've had several health problems since, but I want to know if lower abdomen swelling has progressed rapidly over the years. It over hags my pelvic and looks like I'm deformed. I'm in constant back pain, exercise and diet have never helped and I feel so ugly, can you tell me what I can do about it?

I would check with your gyn. It is not healthy to have a tummy like that, although many post-menopausal women do.  I am sorry that exercise and diet has not helped, that is discouraging, I know.
