Anyone know how long they waiting before going into a pool for recreation? I'm not going to be swimming laps or anything, i just want to cool off and enjoy the nice weather!!

How long did you wait??

My doctor told me I could go swimming one week after my sutures were removed.

My Dr. told me 10 days or whenever the dermabond had peeled off. I didn't have any external sutures.

Does anyone know how long the it takes before walking and normal life returns

my doctor said no pool spa or bath for 3 weeks but I went in after 2 when everything was healed up and closed.

My doctor didn't actually give me a time frame, but I used my judgement and didn't get in the pool for two weeks after my surgery - actually, mine was timed just right because I had my surgery May 12th, and the pool didn't open until May 26th - and that was the first time I got in.

If I have an incest that was infected and closed, but still some redness around incest. When I can go in the pool?

The PA at my surgeon's office recommended 3 weeks. The incisions should be closed to avoid infection...I'll be 3 wks post-op tomorrow and my incisions appear to be completely healed at this point.
