She will have a number of punctures that are closed by internal stitches. I had four. I was on my feet almost as soon as I came round.
But - as a female she will want these wounds to heal first time so they are as neat as possible. Bear in mind these are muscle layers that are stitched. There is a difference between what she can do and what you should encourage her to do. Do the decent thing and give the operation the best chance to heal without the unsightly scars that would follow if the wounds had to be repaired. Yes?
