How Long

[ljperez 87]

Does if actually take for the inside to heal? Roughly? Just thinking about all they did in there and wanted to know about how long to heal from the inside out.

Folks are usually cleared to bathe, swim, and lift objects at 6 to 8 weeks - your incisions must have no scabs. For the insides, it is three months, sans complications, to be considered healed - least that is what the staff at my surgeon's office states. And the reasons they have us on PPI's is to help with reflux, insure that we dont form ulcers, and help that staple line heal.
