Massaging with internal sutures?
My first BA I was told to massage after the first week, this time I have sutures on the insides of the lateral pockets not to mention the crease where he put the implants. Anyone massage with internal sutures (I had a pocket revision). Thanks

massaging internal sutures
Hello,
I just had my revision (for several complications including symmastia, over 2 weeks ago). I went for my 2 week post-op the other day and my PS showed my how to massage. It's only one movement of an upward push. My PS pushed them high enough for me to definitely feel like it's moving (not just some light push). He said not to go any other direction as this would cause the internal sutures that I have to break (I have double suturing on bottom and sides of breasts). His nurse said to hold this for 5 seconds, 10 reps twice a day. What did your PS say? Dec2008, how have you been? I've been meaning to follow-up with you. By the way, my PS did not have me wearing the thong bra until my 2 week post-op because of the thin skin and tissue that bruised heavily, he did not want to put any more pressure on the bruising. |
