Tiny2011 3 Posted September 6, 2012 How long did anyone wait after surgery to start playing. I'm almost 6 weeks post op and have the itch to play. But i'm afraid the twisting motion of the mid section will aggrevate the incisions. Especially the one on the left side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notime 340 Posted September 6, 2012 Have you asked your doctor or someone in his/her office? It seems that different doctors have different programs for what you can do when. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiny2011 3 Posted September 10, 2012 I've been going to the driving range 2-3 times a week since about six weeks. Sent from my mobile productivity killer. Thanks. I just had my 6 week follow up with doc. on friday. He said it should be fine to play, but if there is any discomfort to stop. I think i'll be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
