May I Take a Tub Bath Being 7 Days Post Op from a Breast Lift/implant?

red2267
I am 7 days post op from having a breast lift with saline implant. I've just been showering but would love a good warm tub bath. Is that advisable? I don't want to risk getting an infection or anything. Just a question I forgot to ask my plastic surgeon.
