Swelling

I am 10 days post op and still swollen. How long were you swollen for and is there anything I can do to bring the swelling down? It’s quite sore.x

Hi hun!

I think i’ve read that some girls have used ice-packs?? Have u tried some?

xx

Yeah, the nurse told me to use ice packs today as i’m still quite swollen too. xx

Hi. Thanks girls. I got some advice yesterday, for the first 48 hours use a cold compress and after 48 hours use a warm compress. I sat watching tv last night with hot water bottles under my arms and it worked. The swelling hasn’t completely gone, but it’s gone down a lot and I feel so much more comfortable x
