Yes I did but masseur avoided my buttocks area and focused on other parts like breasts and tummy.

Hi, I think better to wait for couple of weeks till all of your body is healed

I think let the wounds heal first. Don’t want to risk an infection

Don't think so. Got to wait for 3 to 4 wks at least

Yes, I did the massage the day I was discharged.
