Maintaining a diet with adequate protein but low in sodium helps with healing and swelling. Keeping active (while not over doing it) will get your circulation going. From what I've read, 3 weeks is still too soon to worry. Hopefully keeping the faja on most of the day along with the other things I mentioned will help.

I was still very swollen for awhile. My swelling started to subside approximately a week ago. I was able to return to the gym on Friday...I just walked on the treadmill. Things will get better. For me, week 4 has been the best week so far. I use bromelein (spelling) and arnica to help with the swelling. They are vitamins that you can find anywhere. I found mine at the Vitamin Shoppe and on Amazon. (I also have arnica gel that I rub on the areas that are still swollen.) Good luck and keep us posted! xoxo

Can you post more pics please?

im sorry to seee your still swelling up, try compressing it with a tight garment that will help the swelling

Hi Tlewis , TT takes a few weeks for you to walk upright..you have to give your self a little more time...I had it done three yrs ago and not until week four before I started walking upright and the tighting of the muscle ur going to have for a much longer time some days it comes and goes, use arnica, and Bromelien it's good for swelling, yes follow what New Attiitude 2014 said she is on point, and try to be patient it takes some time, sorry boo u can't rush it....Happy healing..muah! xoxo!!

Girl you look FINE!!! Your surgery was about a week after mine! I had the same procedures on 6/14. I'll give you some advice now though. BE VERY MINDFUL of the creases and indentations because they can become permanent and the garment can cause it. The swelling is normal though. Good luck!
