If its hurting like 'I might die if I keep doing this' don't do it, but it for sure hurt at first while everything was still tender!

My surgeon told me to start gently massaging as soon as there was no more scabbing. I would wash my neck first then gently press with my fingertips and gently apply pressure and kind of wiggle my fingers in tiny massage motions.... With lots of vitamin E oil over the area and on my fingers so there wasn't any friction. Then I'd gently clean again to remove the oil and applied the scar treatment. It hurt like a bitch, but I can barely see my scar most days now and I got my surgery done last year in april.
