body posture Started by: candybabey

Hey Hun I had the exact same thing! My shoulder was soooo sore I was hunching up more on one side than the other and I think that’s the worst pain I’ve had throughout the whole thing! Sleeping on your back for so long really hurts aswel! I’m 3 weeks post op on Tuesday and I think I’ve just started to feel comfortable sleeping and I’ve stopped hunching now the pain does go. Try sitting upright on the sofa with a hot water bottle it really worked to help relax the muscle xx

The nurse I saw on the day of the op, before I left hospital said ‘keep your shoulders relaxed’ and I have found it’s helped. Easy to say of course but when you’re walking , sitting etc, try to drop your shoulders. Sleeping uncomfortably can’t be helping us x

Thankfully i didn’t hunch over too much but i would say to try and avoid doing it as much as possible as it’ll only make you feel worse when you eventually come to walking straight!!xx
