Just wait until everything settles down from the surgery and heals up properly...
I’m not talking about sex here, though that's good to know. I suppose I'm just wondering if it might help me feel better—like preventing my muscles from seizing up entirely. Am I being naive? No, I'm simply asking. I have no idea when this whole situation actually settles down.

No, this isn't the place for lighthearted banter; I need actual answers, not jokes. A week ago, I underwent reconstructive surgery to fix the scarring left behind by an appendectomy. It was necessary because everything was a mess due to a surgeon’s error during my initial appendix removal. The doctor who operated on me last week ended up excising everything—skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle, and the peritoneum—before closing the wound in two layers. He didn't use stitches on the skin; instead, he used medical adhesive strips.
So, here is the question: how do you actually get these strips off, and does it hurt? Also, when is it safe to be intimate with a partner without risking my recovery?
