Paulax 8 Posted July 31, 2006 forgot to ask my surgeon. I have an inviting pool in my backyard and a hot tub. What recommendations did you get from your doc? I will phone my surgeon in the morning. I figure when the incisions are closed???? Which they are not, still some scabbing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leila 0 Posted July 31, 2006 My Dr. says at 2 weeks post-op, I've seen other Dr.'s of people on here say 4 weeks and 6 weeks. I agree with your instinct, wait until your incisions are healed over, no scabbing, fully closed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
