In January of this year I had surgery where the doctor had to cut through my abdominal muscles (laporoscopy) due to endometriosis and he had to do a lot of scraping of the tissue inside. Well, the swelling was really, really bad for about 5 weeks (looking like I was pregnant!). Well, the swelling has been down for almost a month, and when I went to the gym and did some crunches, I'm all swollen again, and I think I irritated the muscles! How long should someone wait to do abdominal workouts?

the best person to ask would be your doctor or surgeon. if i were you i would not do anything until i have spoken to them. you can never compere yourself to another person as we all have different healing times. good luck.
