How long are girls recovery really? When was anyone able to go back to work? I’ve booked 5 days off but it works out as 10 days including weekends and bank holiday!! But I’m worried encase I have to take more time, is that enough do you reckon?? xx
It varies for each individual. I originally booked off around 10 days, I ended up having just over two weeks off work because I struggled to move my arms and lift. I’m a nurse through so my job involves lots of movement, you may be okay depending on
Your job? Xx
Everyone is different some people are like 4 days others are a few weeks! i had my op on the thurs and went back to work the following thurs but i am only sat at a desk although i did have to leave a few hours earlier because i got so tired and weak easily! x
Hi I booked 2 weeks of op in 4 days !! As I am a nursery nurse so lifting heavy toddlers and babies all day very worried wont have healed by week 3 when I go back to work ?
Brill thank you ladies, I work behind a desk so will only be typing and i’ll defo not be doing any lifting! Op booked for 23rd so excited!! Thanks again xx
Hey! I’m 4 weeks post op on Saturday!! I’m a hairdresser! I took two weeks off and left my third week open but I took the third week off! SO glad I did I honestly wasn’t ready to go back after 2 weeks!! My surgeon told me not to blowdry for 6 weeks but I have been and been fine!! However I literally can’t bring myself to lift boxes of stock as I’m too scared loool! Just remember our job is really tough on your body and be careful 🙂 xx
