Hey I had my surgery dec 27th does anyone knows when you can start going into the pool?

Usually 8-12 weeks out, per your surgeons instructions and/or any medical issues you may or may not have.

Pretty vague, huh?

When in doubt, call the doc. :)

I was OKed to go into pools at about a month post-op. My surgeon just wanted my incisions to be closed. I've been doing Water aerobics for the last couple weeks.

I was told it was ok as long as there are no more scabs on my incisions. At 3 months out I would think you should be ok.

As long as your incision scars are healed over, you are fine for the pool.
