Hey All!

Did any of you guys or gals use compression garments after surgery? Did they work/help? My surgery isn't until the 16th but my mom commented the other day that I may or may not need them as I journey further down the road.

Thanks!

I'm curious about this as well. Surgery in 3 days!

I know they do use them during surgery... that's a good question.. ask your doctor about after surgery before you go home

They gave me some abdominal wrap. I used it twice. Did not need it.

Stalls are your body's way of telling you not to get too cocky.

I'm about 3 months out and just started wearing compression shirts about a month ago. I don't know if it helps with anything but as a guy who wears a shirt and tie everyday it does make your clothing fit better. The best shirts that I have found are the ones from Target.
