Oh the first day (day of operation) is the more comfortable one, at least to me. The second day where you have to walk, is more challenging but with painkillers and moving slower than a tortoise, it’s still manageable 😂 I slept flat on my back and turned to the side and got up with the help of the hospital bed, just raise the bed and let it do all the work for you. By the time I got home, I’m able to walk up and down the stairs. My wound didn’t sting or bleed. Can’t recall when did I stop taking painkillers, maybe on the second week? It’s not as horrible as you think.
