Lacey09 17 Posted April 17, 2016 im seven weeks out. i was told that its important to let the insicions "breathe." No ointments, lotions or dressings. i felt best when they were with non tight clothing over them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cat saaski 104 Posted April 17, 2016 (edited) I wear a compression tank and it has helped my abdominal pain. I'm nervous to go without it because the pain was so bad. My incisions seem fine. Edited April 17, 2016 by saasycat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
