After your breast surgery, you will typically be able to shower or bathe within a few days, once your surgical incisions are healing well. It is important to follow your surgeon’s instructions regarding showering or bathing, which may include avoiding direct water pressure on the incision sites and using gentle, non-abrasive cleansers. Taking proper precautions will help promote healing and minimize the risk of infection.
When can I shower or bathe after the surgery, and are there any precautions I should take?
