I sure wish I had seen this three weeks ago. I’m on week 4 and swelling behind my ears and hardness is awful!!! Going to sleep flat tonight!!

[@louferguson7048]

I have that now at week 2. Very uncomfortable when not wearing compression. What worked for you? Did it get better?

[@marialopes7067]

Wow glad I saw the video my procedure is Monday Jan 15, 2024

[@salvadorhpo2030]

How are you doing?

[@robynhewett2813]

Thankyou very much for your expertise Doctor. The information makes a lot of sense. I think if a Patient asks about anything that they may be worried about before Surgery, all to the better. Many thanks once again. Regards Robyn.

My surgeon told me to wear a head wrap every night and during the day when I can for a year after surgery!!

[@dammar117]

To me, it makes sense. Keep the tissues in place so they heal in place. My surgeon didn't tell me to do this, but I'm doing it anyway.

[@khonthainaidc]

A year 😮

[@a.alexandrajimenez8437]

Thank you!! Great info I hate the head wrap it does irritate the surgery. 🥳🙏🙏🙏

[@myasgur]

What are your thoughts on Red light therapy? and PEMF Mats? Thanks

[@johnygthing]

Does it leave visible scaring if so where are the area and does the scaring effect hair growth ,,

[@cartierwhite_lasvegas]

Same thing my doctor believe in , it's working for me so far

[@KETO_DIET]

Does the Hyperbaric Chamber facilitate better final wound healing outcome or just speed up the healing process?

[@rbalikian]

It can definitely do both. The greater benefit though is in the immediate healing process. But for some it will improve the health of the tissues that leads to a better long term result.

[@khonthainaidc]

Before after surgery can I take motion sickness pill and allergy relief pill?

[@khonthainaidc]

How fast can I resume to exercise like swimming or weightlifting (8-10 lb dumbbell)

[@sweetcorn71]

When you lie down flat, do you not use a pillow at all? can you use like a memory foam or just lie flat without a pillow? please explain

[@rbalikian]

The most important concept is to keep your neck extended. You can lie flat or you can use 1 pillow to keep your head slightly elevated. Oftentimes our patients like putting a neck roll pillow behind the neck to keep their chin elevated and the neck extended. It is important to be comfortable, so find a position that works for you to keep your neck extended.

[@susykings3343]

But they say it will make you more swallow the next day if you lie flat, this is the first video, and doctor I see that advice otherwise

[@KChapman6079]

My doctor has advised sleeping upright with a neck pillow. I guess the most important thing is to keep the neck extended?🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Spiceydame]

I have my surgery scheduled in October 2024, but I have a second consult with the doctor because I have concerns so I'm definitely going to ask him about the laying down flat or up. I've already got treatments for the hyperbaric chamber I was going to do one hyperbaric chamber before and then four after but now that you've said two before, I will do the two since the center said that I would need five so you're right on that.

I believe wearing the head garment for compression at least the first 2 weeks helps with not getting a blood clot and it helps with circulation and keeps the swelling down a great deal also the sleep sleeping elevated is useful in the healing process but as usual each Dr has their own way of doing things,.. I suggest Just ask your particular Dr not another patient Dr. happy health and healing to all ❤️‍🩹
