Just rest and take it easy. I'm 9 days out and I haven't done anything strenuous yet. Put your feet up and have a few sips of water or protein shake. Also take your multi. You'll feel better soon. If the pain doesn't go then call the clinic.


Just take it easy. Vacuuming can wait. The incisions are tiny so your fine in sure. Just rest.

My surgeon has said no vacuuming for 3 weeks. It was specific. Something about the movement. He recommends only light housework and no lifting of anything over 10 lbs.
