Work Travel

[Boatdrinks]

Getting closer!!
I am scheduled for my implant on October 9th. A work trip just came up that I really need to get to if possible. Those implanted, can I realistically take a flight and be in meetings for two days, 10 days after implant?

You could possibly recover fast enough if you are young and strong....but my opinion is that 10 days post-op you could be on zoom calls or Teams.....but unless your going to concoct a cover story (or tell people you had implant surgery) you will need a reason why you are attending that meeting in pajama pants with a frozen bag of peas down your pants. I intentionally did the surgery in-between jobs because I did not want to take this chance....so I would get out of that business trip ....or reschedule the surgery. (but I'm not young and strong)

It all depends. Some guys are fine. Others, like me, so much. I had a grapefruit sized hematoma that didn’t start going down until about 14 days out.

I don't think there's any way to predict with certainty. I'm 58 but I'm a fast healer and in good shape. 14 days post op I traveled by plane for a 3 day conference and did just fine. A little sore and uncomfortable but I managed and no one said a word. If you're a fast healer, maybe you'll be fine... no way to know for sure though.

Thanks for the replies. Zoom is out as well as showing up some frozen peas… lmao
I am 57 and seem to be a quick healer. I booked the flight and worse case, I can back out as the boss knows I am having a procedure. I will just tell him I am not up for it if it comes to that.
Just wondering how I will look and feel in a pair of jeans at 11 days out…

I could definitely go on a work trip at 10 days, one thing is you will still be getting used to the feeling of your revived penis and figuring out what is comfortable for clothes. I went to work 2 days later , standing for hours at a time.

Im 3.5 weeks post op and a fast healer.
I think you can (maybe). I think you'll prefer not to.
Factors that matter:
Size, age, are you diabetic or otherwise slow to heal. Who's your surgeon? Infrapubic or intrascrodal?

If you're young (ish) and a fast healer and your getting infrapubic, I'd say you have the right plan with booking the flight but maybe get a refundable ticket.

Also if you want to accelerate your healing look into bpc157. Its a peptide that helps with healing. I used it and I feel it helped a lot.

Looking back at my timeline, day 10 was the day I got my staples out. I felt great but I was still really fragile. If I had 3 big sneezes in a row I think I might have bled from my incision and eating until I was very full was still pretty uncomfortable... but waiting for your implant is the worst so I would have done exactly what you did but I'd kniw in my head there's a 75% chance id bail on the trip if it was at all possible.

I think so. Try and get there a day early. Take heating pad and popcorn. Freeze that popcorn in maneuverable bags.
Prop them feet up, ice, heat, eat and sleep.
I was really hungry for three weeks after mine so have plenty of healthy food.

Easy.

According to my surgeon, I had a fast recovery, back to full sexual activity at the end of a month recovery, but I would have found it VERY uncomfortable to take flights and have business meetings 10 days post op.

I consider myself a fast healer. Had sex about 3 weeks after…. Very gentle sex!!. Still at 10 days I wouldn’t have been good for travel much less setting in on a meeting. Way too many variables. Bad thing is you won’t know til maybe a day or two before. I would make alternate plans. Tell the boss that your Dr said no travels for 3 weeks or more.
