Stayed in overnight but that was more due to my reaction to the anaesthetic.

Pain relief via typical pain relief, for personal reasons I avoid opiates so i used ibuprofen.

First night at home was uncomfortable had to sleep sat up. Was up and about day after just short walks. Was back at work within a week.

Did go to wound clinic as one by my navel took longest to heal but no problem really
