<p>Did anyone's surgeon give a recommendation for how long after surgery we can go swimming? Does anyone have any experience or advice with this?</p> <p> </p> <p>Thanks! :)</p>

Hi! My surgeon told me 3 to 6 wks depending on how I feel..

Mine said 6 to 8 weeks. You need to heal.

My surgeon said to wait until my incisions are completely healed. It took 9 weeks. Enjoy the swimming.

I was cleared for swimming and weight lifting after 6 weeks. Mentally it took me another four or so to actually work up the nerve to use the pool at the gym. LOL. Now I have all these accessories. Like a kickboard and these swimming paddles for my hands.
