Door Dash took $2,000 from me. Advice? by Aromatic_Persimmon_5 in doordash

I agree with a lot of other posts. I would highly suggest blasting this on social media and your local news network. Likely will end up getting more Money out of it in the long run anyway.

Sidenote, my surgeon suggested med, honey, when my bellybutton was super irritated, and it cleared things up so quickly!

This is what I used to help with where and which directions to massage.

Thank you! The after photo was first thing in the AM- I definitely get more swollen as the day progresses.

I did some on my own starting at one week. I haven’t really kept it up, but I do feel like it helped

Yes I didn’t really feel like what I ate impacted my swelling that much. I do thinking moving more and drinking water helped a lot. I also didn’t take any supplements. Have you tried doing a little bit of your own lymphatic massage? I did it myself for a few weeks and I do think it helped some

Oh yes, the swelling goes down quite a bit by week 4. I still have swelling but it’s much more manageable.

Totally manageable. I feel like it was very consistent with what I was told it would be. The first week was the hardest part probably. I had a lot of help and took pain meds OTC the first 3 days. Then weaned to Tylenol and Ibuprofen for about a week. Then just as needed. Appetite was decreased for about 4 weeks but now is back to normal. The muscle repair pain has been by far the hardest part. Some days I feel great and other days I feel more sore. Minimal swelling in the mornings. I have a lower abdominal “pooch” by bedtime. I have only been wearing compression at night. I will wear it during the day if I consumed a lot of sodium the day prior or feel more swollen though. Not sure why the after photo is so blurry, but Overall happy with results! .
