hi all, i had my Umbilical hernia op done 5.5 weeks ago now and after a nasty infection and 5 weeks off work i am back in today, (dinner lady) not too strenious but on my feet for an hour, i also feel a little better in myself that i have probably done more than i should do, but this late afternoon i have had a dull ache in my belly,, just wondering if its my body saying rest up, ? any ideas
Great to hear you are back at work. How did it go with the hoover? I'm pretty sure it's your body telling you to slow down and rest a bit. I've made the mistake of lifting a friends daughter and was in pain for a few days. So, I took extra care to not do much for a day or two. Isn't it amazing how stretching a few inches too far or lifting something a little too heavy makes your body respond?
the hoover was ok but i do have a small upright dyson, which i bought after my hystorectomy,, but i wont lift it, but yes i ges its pain from over doing it,
I'm in the same boat. 6 weeks post op and I think I overdid things at the livery yard this morning. I didn't feel it straight away but I'm very sore now.
