swimbikerun 1,046 Posted August 17, 2015 Keep walking. Sadly until it gets out there isn't much else you can do but walk around and try to get it out. There might be other things people have tried but that might still be a problem. have you talked to your surgeon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mlsuarez 5 Posted August 19, 2015 No but it's actually better today. I walked 30 min yesterday and I think it helped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ms89 9 Posted September 18, 2015 It feels counter-intuitive, but I'm 2 weeks post op today and walking is the ONLY thing that helps. Walk walk walk! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
