I had my surgery about 3 months ago, My pain was very minimal. not being able to twist, bend and lift was the hardest part for me. I had no bruising at all. I did not do massaging but after it healed I did start rubbing some oils (vitamin E, lavender, frankincense) on one to two times a day to help with the scarring.

hey jackie013 ....did you use the exparel pain relief medication

No, I took oxycodone and diazepam about 4 times a day for the first 4 days, then just at night to help with sleeping.
