    You still have stitches and the process helps slow. I had surgery on 2/27/2018, and I still have stitches once the stitches dissolve the lump will go away

      Yes. It’s takes time the doctor say 6 weeks but that’s a lie. I’m 10 weeks Post and my stitches are still dissolving.

    Hi Sandy

    It’s worrying isn’t it!

    I had same as you 10 weeks ago. I can’t stand for more than about 15 minutes without feeling real strain and lack of support from the upper wall.

    Maybe less time standing for you until things strengthen a little more and only lift and carry very light things. 

    Everyone is a bit different. My pf muscles were torn from the pelvic bone so unfortunately I will never be back to my former self.
