arringtonc49 188 Posted March 31, 2017 How long does it take before you can lift over 10 lbs or weights post op? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orionburn 1,024 Posted March 31, 2017 I was limited to no more than 25 lbs the first few weeks, but I've seen lower & higher numbers from others on here. Check with your doctor to be safe. Look at it this way - your doctor was the one that worked inside of you. I'd rather have their opinion than just going by what others on the interent were cleared for.

kins117 104 Posted March 31, 2017 My instructions are no more than 8 pounds the first week, then no more than 20 the next 4 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
