    Hi girls hope everyone is well
    I was just wondering if anyone knows when it is okay to have a bath? I am sure this topic has been discussed hundreds of times before sorry for that I have tried searching but cant find any similar threads/ I am 8 days PO I had my strapping off yesterday-I think the nurse said I can have a bath 48 hrs after which is about now but I am not sure. It was a bit of a blur tbh and dont want to risk making a mistake

    Hiya hun, you not supposed to have a full bath until 6 weeks post op, a shallow bath with no products is fine, you can sit/kneel in the water to wash just don’t submerge the incision and don’t get your incision wet. You can put water proof dressings over them to help protect the area and remove them once your out of the bath. x
