Sandy Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I "hear" people talking on here that say they were by the pool recovering and relaxing. Can you get in the pool or do they restrict you from submerging the incisions for a while? :-? Also, is there a spell check on here? 5 days to take off!

Just relaxing. Yes, I believe there is spellcheck. Upper right the checkmark with the abc in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 After all the dermabond falls of on its own and your incisions are scab free, THEN it's safe to go back in the water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alana Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I waited till all my glue fell off, which took about 3 weeks. I got into the pool that weekend! I love it and use it as a primary source of exercise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyodieter Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 It was tough, but I only dangled my feet in the pool.. It was so hot when I was there and my son was just swimming away. But it was still nice just being there. Now that I can swim I don't really want to.. funny how that works! But then again I'm not in Mexico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sdejong Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Dr. Ortiz to me 10 days, by then the incisions should be healed good enough for swimming and or a bath... shy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAMMIE Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 THE LAST THING YOU WANT IS BACTERIA TO GET INTO YOUR WOUNDS. WAIT TILL EVERYTHING IS COMPLETELY HEELED, 4 - 6 WEEKS IS THE STANDARD WAIT TIME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
