Is it ok to workout and play sports like soccer and basketball two weeks after surgery?

Thanks for the question. After 6 weeks your surgery area is totally healed and yes you can play soccer and also do other sport activities. I wish you all the best.

Perhaps, this may help provide you some insight. Usually 1 week after #gynecomastia surgery you can begin taking moderate walks or ride a stationary bike. Strenuous workouts or aerobic #exercise can begin around 4 weeks post-op. I suggest you get approval from your doctor before you begin any physical activity and workout regimens. It important to prevent any damage to the surgical sites as you are healing. This will decrease your chance of requiring #revision procedures in the future. The best advice is to be patient as it is still very early in your post-operative #healing.

Ask your surgeon for their recommendations specific to your operation.  However, it seems a bit too soon to start working your pectorals after a significant gynecomastia reduction.  I usually recommend about 6 weeks of no heavy chest muscle exercise.

I would think it unwise to start vigorous sports that soon, but check with your surgeon. For my patients 4-6 weeks is required for sufficient healing to play sports safely.#SportsAfterGynecomastia

Two weeks is too soon. Mild exercise after male breast reduction is not recommended until at least two weeks and six weeks for more aggressive exercise.
