How long does it take to go down?

It has gone down a lot since day 1 but it’s still swollen now.

Any idea how long it takes? It’s only been ten days

Pics are from day 3 to day 8 it’s gone down a lot but still isn’t back to normal

Took me abt two weeks or so - you can feel it for some time but it goes back so don’t worry xx

I remember how uncomfortable the bloating feels. You could try Milk of Magnesium or psyllium husk. Avoid bananas. It will go down soon.
