I'm hoping someone can answer my question.
I'm 28 years old and in great shape. I had an ectopic pregnancy 3 weeks ago, had surgery and had my left fallopian tube removed.
Just wondering when the swelling/inflammation will FINALLY go away and my body will return to normal or even begin to look like it's healing. I can't even wear my jeans yet.
Is there something i can be doing to reduce swelling/inflammation?
The incision itself is almost healed and can barely be seen. But I'm still swollen (down there)
It doesn't seem like it's getting any better, and of course, i'm impatient and just want some answers.
Will i be waiting another month...6 months... a year??
Just need to know.

 Hello,
It is not unusual for it to take several weeks to get back to "normal" so try to be patient. If you develop fever or any sign of infection, sudden pain or other symptom, call your surgeon.
Best wishes.
