What is the consensus about working out/lifting weights post-op? My doc said after 10 days 'light' workouts. I wanted to get a general idea of what you guys thought?

The way my scar felt at that point, I would say that light cardio (walking, cycling) would only be acceptable at that point. I did absolutely nothing for a full week after the procedure and I'm 20 years old. I just made it a point to work out very hard for about 5 weeks leading up to the procedure, so that a rest period would be benificial.

Give yourself a month or more before you go back to extremely heavy weights.

I lifted at about 2 and a half weeks post-op, but only light and only certain exercises that would not stretch or strain my head/neck.

Just be cautious and smart and you'll be fine.
