I was warned not to over do it, eg no heavy lifting for 4 weeks. Exercise is required but exactly what. I was using a pushup technique in the hospital bed in order to turn from side to side without brushing against any stitches. I did five pushups this morning which seemed to be ok as the body is straight. The problems are more an issue for the stomach crunch type of manouvre, like situps and toe touches. In the end I just walked the length of the beach and back for 4,000 steps. There is plenty of flotsam to pickup but I wasn't bending, maybe tomorrow. The anaesthetic has warn off but there are still five days of golf ball sized antibiotic pills and I am already drowning in the stuff after 8 bags were dripped into me. We can't make a fuss about too much puss.
