Is Attending an Event 2 Days After Breast Augmentation Feasible?

April 10, 2012
Asked By:km425

2 days after BA surgery I am planning to attend an important event - I will be seated the majority of the time, but will likely be receiving hugs and will be required to walk short to moderate distances. What pain level should I be prepared to have? Does this seem like a terrible idea? I am also curious about total time after surgery until you feel completely normal again? My PS says no exercising for 3 weeks....after 3 weeks will I feel normal? When will I be able to do pull-ups again post-op?
