When to stop vaccum and traction before the surgery?

[Mangotin]

Is it safe to vacuum and traction until the surgery day to maximize the benefits or body can do the opposite and the tissues retract

I pumped the night before and was exactly the same length after surgery.

It isn’t like there are any studies on this but I don’t think there is any reason to worry.

There are numerous surgeons on line that advise stopping pumping one week prior to surgery. I discussed this with my surgeon and he advised the same thing. This is to avoid possible bruising of the area prior to the surgery.

I used a VED literally in the parking lot before my surgery. You can continue it right up to surgery, which is what my surgeon recommends.
