5 weeks post op full TT with muscle repair. Swelling after stopping compression garment and pain question.
lrmcmasterSep 4, 2015
I returned to normal light activity for the past few days. But after just a couple of hrs I begin to swell and feel discomfort. There is also a dull achey pain with the swelling. The pain lessens if i lie down. Is this normal after removing the compression? I don't want to wear it again! Should I be resting or keep up with normal daily (light) activities? I woke this morning with a sharp pain going vertically down the muscle. Is this linked or something different? Thank you in advance.
