How soon after surgery would you recommend doing these stretches? I had a double mastectomy with sentinel nodes removed on the right. No radiation or chemo, as I am only 1 week out of surgery.
Once you're past the 6 week mark after surgery you can push the motion without risk of pulling at your incisions. I definitely started well before this (a few weeks after surgery) but listened to my body if there were any pulling sensations rather than just a stretch feeling.
The rehab exercises are the most important to focus on at the initial stages after surgery - 0-3 weeks - ruclips.net/video/xd36lAM0qP0/видео.html, 3-6 weeks - ruclips.net/video/P5K8itTPxd4/видео.html and 6+ weeks - ruclips.net/video/-H6pLhuV8Hc/видео.html

I am 3 weeks out of a double mastectomy. Had my first expander injection 3 weeks out as well. What stretch or exercise regimen do you recommend?
