I'm on day 5 and had dressing removed today by mw and the wound is soo sore tonitey. Feel like its tighter and pulling... is this normal ? What can I expect in the coming days
 
I had the same tightening and pulling, especially on one side and sometimes the pain was intense. I felt better by day 7 and each day after that. Then I would feel the tightening just when I would walk for more than 10 minutes. At 4 weeks, I didn't feel the pain at all. I was exercising by week 6!
 
Hi there, that's normal you'll feel the pulling for a while yet but it will get easier!

I found that I was still uncomfortable three weeks pp but then I started feeling much better; by week 4 I had no pain but I still did t drive or lift until after my 6 week check.

I'm now 9 weeks pp and I lifted something off the top of my wardrobe yesterday and that was sore, so trying to take it easy still! I think the best thing is to just stay as active as you can in terms of walking around (obviously no hikes!!) as this really helped with my recovery.

Xx
