Hello everyone it has been 9 days since my surgery! At first it was painful, but as each day passed each day gets better. The compression garment is un comfortable, I'll take it off when I shower(in semi cold water) it feels better. I also will take it off when it's being washed. Massaging is done while when I'm out of the garment. I can't wait to see the final results after swelling! I did try on some clothes, and can see a change already. I've also been out and about which wasn't bad, it just felt like a serious workout and made me tired. does anyone have any suggestions about expiditing the bruising to go away? Any suggestins period is welcomed. Pictures to come soon.

Day nine, great. I bet u have seen some great improvements already. I was about 85-90% back by day ten, in fact I flew back to Colorado from Phoenix that day. Good luck with the healing journey.

Okay, day 9 too. I start some massage therapy ( endomoligie) tomorrow. Hoping it will help with swelling and especially bruising. I will let you know. I just wish I could fast forward a few weeks and be swell free or at least less and no bruising. Pain okay, but I just like felling 100% No regrets but I am not good at resting so I am just ready to be all better. I know I have to be patient and this is all normal but I am just whining. Post some pics soon. So glad you are having results despite the swell.

Well it's Saturday! It's not that bad! The pain is tolerable, Im kinda grogy and I can already see the results! I'm still swollen and see the change. It hurts to get up after sitting down for a long period of time. I cant wait to see the actual results!

Glad to here you are doing well. I have that same stiffness. I think I am turning the corner. The arnica gel is like a miracle and feels so good as soon as i apply it. Will need to get more of that for sure.
