Post surgery Modified Ravitch (36 F)

Just wanted to update. I posted on here around a month ago for my surgery. I had it on August 10. So far it’s mostly been pain and getting used to the small bar inside my chest.

I do feel the bar “crackle” when I try to breath. But I’m up and walking and I’m able to move around no problem at the moment.

Does anyone have any insight into when the weird. Tackle from the bar will subside??

Cosmetically, I am so happy with the results. I keep looking at my chest.
