I am also 4 days postoperative and I've taken showers and didn't find them painful at all. I'm just really careful around incisions

I had no problem with showers. I'm not sure why they would be painful.

I felt like an alien until I got to take a shower.. Your good girl, just be careful getting in and out of the tub, and reaching up to wash your hair

No pain when I had a shower. It felt great actually! LOL

Showere, warm water, are nice...
