I'm new too. My name is Rubyanne. I am 1 week postop. I too feel no pain i do have a little discomfort. but I have a lot of itching around my wounds. I hope to hear from you soon good luck. God bless

Welcome too. Stay strong and keep a good attitude. Come back here often. Itchy incisions are a nuisance. I was glad when all the glue was gone that covered mine
