If there wasn't any pain then I think you didn't do any damage. Do you look and feel as you used to?

11.5wks post op? i would guess you are fine if you don't feel any pain.

i thought most ppl can return to normal exercise after 4-6wks?  you still have swelling at 11.5wks post op?

i thot the same.. but i guess its diff with diff ppl... maybe im just paranoid? who knows...

i started stretching a week after surgery.  very light.  it was recommended by my PS.  11.5 weeks?  buddy, stop worrying...you should be bench pressing your weight at the very least by now

dude are you serious? 11 weeks is a crazy amount of time, people here are bench pressing after a month, if you still have swelling and pain go see your ps immediately? swelling is possible maybe its some scar tissue, but pain after so long is unheard of. goodluck

i guess im just too scared with the experience..

Don't worry about it dude. Just take it easy and don't over do it. You'll be fine.

BTW, some guys are still swollen beyond the 3 month marker. We all heal at different rates.

Best to leave the stretching alone for a while and if you are lifting weights, go easy and use light weights to start with...  Listen to your body, if there is pain, stop.
