Rest,rest and if possible rest some more. It's a slow process but rest is the key to recovery, the brain uses more energy to recover than any other part of the body. X

The worst pain in my life getting the first lot of staples out n the nurse was saying it doesn’t hurt I screamed at her av u ever had staples she said no so i said we’ll how would u know, I made her get me another nurse n then I called her a butcher lol, my eyes where watering the pain was that bad n when I had to av the second op on other side of head I told em I wanted morphine but wasn’t allowed so told them I wanted something to numb it n was promised that n wrong nurse came n used sterile water n told me it was numbing cream, my daugher watched n said it was water so I reckon the amount of days staples r taken out makes a diff as first side was 7 days n second was 10 n wasn’t anywhere near as painful x
