I had liposuction on my abdomen, flanks and back 4 days ago. I am healing great. My pain is minimal, bruising is minimal, but I am swollen. Is it safe to soak in a luke warm bath with epsom salts. I have about 6 small incisions ( 0.5 inches long) that are closed with glue, no suture. My doctor has given me the go ahead to resume normal activity. Also. when is it safe to use the sauna?
