Hi, I've had my gynaecomastia surgery with liposuction (mild case) to the chest 8 days ago. What I'm wanting to know is how long will it be before i can exercise? Mainly Cycling, Road riding and mountain bike riding. Also how long before i can play soccer? Thanks for any advice you can give.

Answer: How Soon to Exercise After Gynecomastia Surgery? I have my patients wait 4 to 6 weeks before returning to formal exercise to avoid complications. However, this is something you need to review with your surgeon who knows you best. Good luck!

Answer: Activity after gynecomastia surgery Gynecomastia surgery generally involves ultrasound assisted liposuction. There is generally pain and swelling associated with this surgery (as with any surgeries). Most patients should be able to resume most normal activities within 5-7 days after this surgery. With more extensive procedures, there could be excessive swelling or seroma formation especially with too much activity after surgery. In general, I allow my patients to resume exercise when they are comfortable to do so, usually 2-3 weeks after the procedure. You should consult with your surgeon to determine when resuming exercise is appropriate.
