Colemon70 87 Posted April 3, 2013 What's the usual time frame that the incisions heal? Thx in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newat52 1,613 Posted April 3, 2013 I think it depends on the individual. I am 4 weeks out tomorrow and mine are nearly healed. 2 still have small scabs but my big one is completely healed. I also have been told Protein promotes faster healing. I have been a champ at getting in my protein so hopefully that has helped. Typically, they say 6 weeks most folks are completely healed. Hope that helps. 1 Colemon70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
st2011 29 Posted April 3, 2013 What's the usual time frame that the incisions heal? Thx in advance I'm 3.5 weeks out and I had a single incision through my belly button and it is still not healed. I was worried and went in to see my surgeon and he said to give it more time. I hope it heals soon cause wearing pants is so uncomfortable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I've been using something like that cloth band thy give you out of surgery. I'm so afraid of messing something up. I'm scared whenever I try to shower. Plus I'm super squeamish (sp?)
