Hi. I had my breast conserving surgery on the 5th December. After a couple of days I didn’t need pain relief. Just rest when I felt tired. On day 3 I met friends for an hour for coffee. I didn’t do any cleaning or lifting until I felt able & everything healed. 6wks later I’m back playing golf.
I’ve had a little soreness on my scars as I was allergic to some of the stitches used. But I was advised to use silicone surgery tape to promote healing & massage my breast for about 20 minutes per day to help with avoid necrosis.
Good luck with everything & speedy recovery 
Ps I now have a 30 year old breast 
. Which I’m very pleased with. I’m 59
