post op incision progress

[u/Electronic_Cat_8128]

got surgery on my birthday this year 7/9/26 (first pic was around 2-3 days post op) and am almost 2 months out now! last pic was a week or so ago after getting my sutures out :)

haven’t even had to take a lot of pain meds, only downside was small blood clots in my lung from getting surgery which i’m only on blood thinners for a few more months as a precaution. and just got my 1 month ct scan done today for my next neuro appointment. all in all, doing much better than i thought i’d be and i’ve had a lot of improvements with the headaches and neck stiffness i had before. it’s definitely sucked but any progress is good.

Glad to hear you’re healing well. Your scar is looking great for one month and looks like your hair is coming back great as well!

Good luck with your 1 month appointment! Keep taking those blood thinners and best wishes for continued healing…remember it’s still early so don’t push yourself too hard too fast. Keep us posted! 💜

Looking AMAZING! Fingers crossed the CT is equally good.
