3 months out and still get swelling

I'm 3 months out and still get swelling and still get pretty sore after working, is this normal? Anyone else still feel swelling after this long of a period or longer?

I'm only 3 weeks out so I can't give you actual experience but before surgery my Dr advised that I can expect some swelling still 8 months - 1 year after surgery !!!!

Well that's ok, at least you can see what you're in for down the road. Thanks for the feedback, hope your recovery goes well.

I am more then 1year and still swelling at the evening.
it is so bad............

Thanks Alla, I'm hanging in there, just didn't know if it was still normal to get swelling out this far but I guess I have to look forward to it for a while.

I'm sorry you have swelling and are sore still. I have no idea if this is normal 3 months out or not, but I suspect it probably is. U look fantastic.

Thanks I appreciate it. I'm hanging in there.

Most of my surgeries I'd say the swelling lasted at least six months.  But it's certainly all worth it!

Well then hopefully I'm half way there lol. Thanks.

Ugh I feel ya! I'm four months out and usually by the evening I am swollen. I tend to get a bit sore here and there as well. I was actually surprised the other day when I went to lay down in bed and couldn't lay on my side because I was so sore. I keep hearing the six month mark is when we can expect to be "back to normal."

Plus you have such an physically active job I'm sure that adds to it. Every time I exercise I still have to wear my binder and usually swell up and look about five months pregnant. I can't even run without it. Easy goes it...our bodies went through so much.
