Is it true that the recovery time for over’s is quicker than under’s?? Started by: QueenC

i think it’s quicker for overs, but it depends on the person 🙂 i had unders and i’m still in pain 9 days post op now xx

I had overs and I’m am 2 weeks post op today and still in pain! Was expecting to be right as rain after 3 days but as they say everyone body heals differently x

yeh definitely different for everyone, I had unders and felt fine, day 5 and 6 I had a bit of pain but other than that I almost forgot I had it done! the strapping was the worst part for me x

I had overs and thought I was fine after a week. I started doing everything I did before the op and it really set me back. Just because you feel fine you are still heinh and now if I stretch too far or lift something heavy my incisions hurt. It is easier said than done, especially with children but you should do as little as possible for as long as you can xx

I was the same as you @Madeleine, thought I was a capable of doing things like normal but clearly set my healing back! Like you I have a little one so it’s tough to just relax and recover! X

I was so lazy the first week but i think it really helped my recovery.

Lol milk it for all you can! I told my other half I was gonna have a procedure every year just to get a good two weeks of cleaning lol and watch him do it for once!
