Question Not able to shave under my arms before surgery - How many of you had to do this?

I can't shave for another 8 days and it's driving me crazy. I feel gross. I can shave the morning of surgery with a new blade. I understand it's to prevent infection, but what type?

i feel your concern my surgery was on aug 18 and coudln't shave until now so this is gross..and the worst is that when i don't shave , i sweat a lot and i can't use nothing .. so this is hard ..so the only thing i do is wash them very often and put oitment on it.

I know it is so uncomfortable but well worth it!! I think your PS want to avoid any chance of you cutting yourself and exposing your body to harmful bacteria that could possible grow into an infection. You be okay it's only a couple of days.

hey girl!! I know exactly what your talking about! I couldnt shave for 14 days! YUCK!

The reason for this is b/c everytime you shave, you make little cuts under your arm, they are so small that you dont notice, but enough to get bacteria in. Also it prevents ingrown hairs!! It sucks...BAD but it's worth it!!!!!

HEY!!! I see that you are in VA. I will be going to VA in one week!!
I notice that Dr. DeWire was your P.S. I am seeing him for my symmastia repair. I am praying that he'll fix me and I can return to me being me.

Very cool! What a great bonus!

I was told not to shave the morning of and not for a few days after. Funny thing though, I could not have shaved if I wanted to! It takes a little learning to navigate the new boobies! I never had to reach around something before! I am getting better at it now, but boy was it funny the first few times!
