Welp its been a month and its still swollen and painful but
it is way more bearable!
Driving is still very uncomfortable and i cannot stand up
straight still but on the plus i think i finally see some results!!
I recommend sitting on a pillow and putting a rolled towel
between u and lap band of seatbelt to keep pressure off of incision area
Let me introduce you to VASER MASSAGE @hurwitzcenter my post
op treatments included this new high tech procedure which is sort of like a
heated massage machine that assist in lymph drainage and reduces swelling while
decreasing pain
The 1st treatment i was SO SWOLLEN i felt like my skin was
going to burst or had like a BUSTED can of BISCUITS 1 hour later i finally had
some relief since stopping the pain medication 2 weeks before!
S/n i chose to stop pain meds once my kids returned for dads
i do not recommend u stop early or that u take any narcotic pain meds while
caring for any other person. Ijs
I continued these treatments every other day for 2 weeks so
far and each time the swelling goes down tremendously.
Dr. Allina Stite does an amazing job and is also funny while
being considerate of the pain i was in still
What it feels like:
Zappy
Warm
Tingly
Similar to a tanning bed in that afterwards the area feels
like a sunburn under the skin
You will use the bathroom a lot in the next 24 hours! Because
you are supposed to drink extra water to help flush things out
Here are some week 4 pics incl. The vaser machine see u next
week
XOXO Lucy
