Glad your arms are responding and have not worsened!

Oh I am so sorry! I should have been more clear. I didn't mean on the incision itself that would not be good due to germs but, around it say out 2-3" from the actual incision and then go in larger circles away from the site if you can or when you can. I'm so sorry your pain is worse.. though it is hard, try and stay optimistic that this is healing pain.
Sending good vibes your way...
