looking good- how is pain?

Debbie Chatzky

The incision itself isn't very painful- stings a bit. The muscles all around are painful- getting easier. Hard to pick open doors etc.The drainage tubes were very painful and getting in and out of bed and being in bed were hard first few weeks.

Bonnie Stone-Hope

Great looking scar! Healing well.

Chris Purvis

Hey Debbie looking great! Really good picture and glad it's getting easier for the doors etc.

Marianne Charters

Wow. Looks good. I'm 4 weeks out. I agree. The muscles (right side) were more painful than the sternotomy incision. And numb too. My right chest tube area was a killer. Wasn't expecting that!

Anna Jones

Great scar!

Kelly Stoll

Wow! Looks fantastic. Happy healing!!!

LINDA ROBERTS

Your incision looks like mine. Since I am thin I feel like it is more prominent. Are you using anything for the scar? I am 6 weeks so have not been using anything yet.
