OPERATIVE FOLLOW-UPS
The postoperative course is essentially marked by the appearance of edema (swelling) and ecchymoses (bruises), the size and duration of which vary from one individual to another. They will regress within 10 to 20 days following the operation. The pain is generally limited to pulling and shooting phenomena. The healing period can be a little unpleasant due to the tension exerted on the edges of the suture: during this period, any sudden stretching movement should be avoided. It is necessary to plan a work stoppage of 1 to 3 weeks, depending on the nature of the professional activity. The practice of a sports activity can be resumed gradually at best from the sixth postoperative week. The scar is often pink during the first 3 months and then it fades as a rule after the third month, and this gradually over 1 to 3 years. It should not be exposed to the sun for 3 months.
