Went to the gym today at 4.5 wks. How do I know if I hurt myself?

I felt great. Did 45 minutes on elliptical...then got cocky and did a bunch of crunches and a few arm machines with lighter weights (40 lbs) and now tummy is hurting.

Feels like it irritated my inside incisions. What can I do now?

I'm just resting with some Tylenol.

Ughhhh do you think I hurt myself?

I'm approved to jump horses and unrestricted excessive at 6 wks. I wasn't expecting to get so carried away today.

You don't say whether you already have clearance for elliptical and crunches. Even if you were clear about it, no one here can tell you whether you did damage or have sore muscles from the exercise. Call your surgeon's office so that the answering service will relay the incident. It's the logical step to make.
