She recommend I use a gentle body wash that wasn’t going to be harsh or irritable on my incisions.
It may sound silly but although I couldnt wait to shower I was actually a bit scared but it was absolutely fine πŸ™‚
Remember to just pat dry, no rubbing.
Good luck xx

All along it wasn’t the pain I should have worried about it was this tiredness.

I’ve seen posts about Arnica, Senna?

Thank you xx
