Today we will talk about taking care of yourself after breast surgery. Exercise after surgery is a question that many people wonder and worry about whether they can exercise or not. When should I exercise?
It is important to note that for many who exercise regularly, when the initial operation is complete, we must first inform them that we are not able to exercise!!!
Why can’t you work out after the chest surgery? This is because during the first week after surgery, the body’s recovery begins to respond to the material that we put in it. Being in a period of great instability, excessive activity should be avoided.
Otherwise, it will cause movement and shape problems in the future.
When should I exercise? After three weeks or more of surgery, the chest will begin to get in place. The epithelium will start to form a single body, making it possible to exercise lightly such as running on a treadmill, cycling etc.
After a month of surgery, it is possible to work out from light. It should start without any stress, such as yoga or exercise as usual. The first part should not focus on flexibility. Avoid heavy lifting in the early days after getting used to the body’s rhythm adjustment but consider the area of surgery. If symptoms are abnormal or painful, refrain from exercising and consult the surgeon immediately.
