Bowling at 4 Weeks Post Op?

[bloreorbust 286]

What do you think? Has anyone done it? There's a 10-15lb weight restriction for lifting the first 6 weeks. However, if I used a 6lb or 8lb ball I think that might work. Your thoughts?

I wouldn't. You are throwing a ball. The pressure will be higher. F=m*a (force=mass× acceleration)

Makes sense. I called my surgeon's office and they gave me a fat "NO" also. Guess I need to accept I just had surgery and take it easy.

I'd probably go for it, but listen to your doctor. My surgeon gave me the thumbs up to resume full care of my two toddlers(24 & 28lbs) 7 days after surgery.

mine has a 3 week 10 lbs weight restriction then I'm good to go-so I would say as long as your not trying to throw it like a shot put you should be fine.
