    I was told no exercise at all for 2 weeks,just a gentle stroll at 6 weeks i resumed light exercise,i really wouldnt risk it hun,but its up to you,would be a shame to strain yourself and spoil the healing process.xxxx

    Hi Hun, i’ve been doing gentle cycling (without using my arms sat upright), walking on the treadmill and lower body exercises ie. squats, lunges and sit ups since day 6, i’ve been fine.. they say dont do any strenghious exercise for 6 weeks but that doesnt have to mean that we do nothing.. keep your heart rate low, in the gym i’m keeping my bpm to under 110 and listen to your body xxxxs
