Hi everyone! I just had a minor procedure yesterday and I'm dealing with some pretty significant swelling and bruising. This is my first time doing something like this, so honestly, I'm a bit nervous about how to take care of it properly.
Can anyone share tips for reducing swelling and bruising? I've already received instructions from the medical team, but I'd also love to hear from your experiences if you've gone through something similar. What really helped with your recovery? Are there any specific things I should avoid this week?
Also, how long does the swelling usually take to go down? I'm a little worried it might last too long because I have plans to meet up with friends next week, hehe. I'd really appreciate it if anyone is willing to share their experiences!
Thanks, everyone! 💙

Take it easy! I was worried about the same thing at first, but I found that getting enough sleep and avoiding activities that are more strenuous than usual really helps 😊 They say everyone's recovery time is different, but many friends have shared that it gets much better around day 3-5. Either way, focus on what the team has advised!
