I had both sides done end of January last year. I'm a lot better than before but not 100% what I was before the first one, but that was about 5 years ago and I'm 55 years old. I have some pains at times and I thought I had ripped something when I loaded a deer for my invalid stepdad. I forgot I was invalid too. I hurt to some degree nearly two months after that one but I seem to have recovered.
I cycle nearly every day. It might be 20 miles or it might only be 5. If I do a couple days without doing any yoga, I get pain that I know is caused from being too tight. It goes away when I get back to stretching every day. Basically, it's a lot of work to keep taking care of this old body.
Mine was done by robot and he wasn't too gentle. My abdominal muscles were sore for 8 months. I felt like I had been stomped on by someone with a grudge for quite a while.
