Asked By:averlyn in Drums

Im 4 months PO tummy tuck w/ muscle repair. The center of my abs will ache and feel tight while doing stretches or other exercises that use my abs. Ive heard you can go back to strenuous workout after 2 months....Is it normal to get the tight feeling or should i wait longer to work core? Also, when i do get back to yoga will the stretches stretch the skin at all(may sound silly) ive had so much extra skin that ive never had this tight feeling in the skin while doing poses. Thanks
