deodorant after op…

hi girls…

does anyone know whether we’re ok to use deodorant after our op? im 6 days PO now… washing every day but am craving deodorant now, even a roll on xx

I used roll on deodorant from day 1….aren’t we supposed to?? Nurse at the hospital said that would be OK xx

i wasnt sure nurse didnt say anything about it to me i dont think, good to know u r hun ill do the same from now on probably xx

Just found this on the web:

” Q: Can I use lotions and deodorants as normal?

A: Avoid touching the incisions or bringing any product, such as lotion or deodorant, in contact with the stitched area.”

and found this…

“If your incisions are you in your armpit, avoid using deodorant on the incision until it has completely closed. Ask your surgeon if you can keep the steri-strips on your incision until they fall of by themselves. By doing this, you can still wear deodorant, but you won’t run the risk of getting it on your incision.”

… ‘in the armpit’ incisions are an American thing with Saline implants… we don’t do it over here. Our incisions are under the boob… so maybe you will be ok if you apply carefully?

xXx

I reckon it’ll be ok, especially a roll on, couple of days won’t hurt tho may wait till I see nurse on Monday xx

I’ve been using spray on deodorant from day 1 and had no problems do far. Ive still got steri strips on so i might ask when I fervent strips off what to do.

‘get the’ strips off! Bloomin I phone!
