i took a shower the same day as surgery. I'm not sure as far as a bath. Where is your port located? Mines in my chest wall on my left side just at the crease of my underarm

No baths till the incisions were fully healed...I believe it was a few weeks but check with your doctor to confirm.

usually you can shower right away but it is awhile before baths and hot tubs. in fact it was 6 weeks before I was allowed in a hot tub.

no bath until incisions are healed.. I could shower if I did not let the water run directly on my incisions. I think it took about 4-6 weeks .
