Can I go to work about 12 days after costal cartilage harvesting?

I think it depends more on the person than the season. I got my eyes and nose done mostly in summer, but I didn’t get inflammation I’ve seen a lot of people get inflammation and contracture even when they had it done in winter. I’ve also heard there are people who go to work just 3 days after autologous costal cartilage

I work in a kitchen, and I went to work 7 days after having autologous costal cartilage harvested. No problems at all

[@] Oh, good. If you sneeze or something like that, it would hurt, right? For about a week?

For me, the pain only lasted until the day after surgery. After that, rather than pain, it was just kind of stiff/sore? It wasn’t at the level of being painful!

I work at a cafe, and I went to work 10 days after having autologous costal cartilage harvested. It still hurts when I lift heavy things or things like that, but not to the point that I can’t do it

I heard these days season and inflammation aren’t related, but of course it’s probably a bit harder when managing it... You need to take walks for the swelling to go down, but you get sweaty and it’s hot

I don’t think the season has that much of an effect. I had it done with autologous costal cartilage, and I only felt slightly stiff/sore, not particularly hard to deal with

As long as you don’t make big movements, it should be okay

12 days should be possible.. I also had it done with autologous costal cartilage at Jeongwon, and since I was someone who didn’t have autologous costal cartilage pain, I could go to work right after removing only the splint at the one-week mark. Even after just removing the splint, I could see the line was different from before, so it was fascinating
