Had my appendix removed yesterday afternoon through an open surgery (3 inch ish cut rather than keyhole laproscopy?). How long will it be roughly before I can ride bikes again. Doctor said 10 days until fairly normal again, but I’m assuming this doesn’t mean off road riding. Any experiences? Thanks!

I was off work for 2 weeks and another 2 before i was riding.Your stomach muscles will feel tight for a long time!!

Yeah I’m feeling a little bruised as it is at the moment, and struggling to use my stomach muscles to lift my legs, lie down etc. sounds like it will be a while then 🙁
