Returning to the gym after surgery

[D24]

Hi, I'm 5 weeks post op (lipo only). I was supposed to have a follow up meeting with the surgeon 6 weeks post op but have recieved a letter to say it's goin to be 8 weeks post op for the follow up. Am I ok to return to the gym now? As a bodybuilder the time away from the gym is really starting to get to me. Unfortunately the hospital can't give me a direct line to the surgeon to speak to him. Any help would be appreciated

you should be fine usually 3 weeks is ok

I resumed training after 7 weeks. Going back to the gym takes my mind off the gyno stuff. I had forgotten how important working out was in my life! Currently 2 months post op. Still puffy nipples (scar tissue=cause?) but hitting the gym hard again.
Good luck. You will feel if your body is ready or not. Nobody can tell you yes or no for sure.

Cool thanks for the replies, I have a similar situation where one side of my chest has quite a bit of scar tissue round my nipple. Think I'll go tomorrow and maybe train my back and see how it goes
