Regular Member Concord75 Posted August 21, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted August 21, 2020 I'm planning for FUT surgery and a little bit concerned about being able to sleep the first few nights. I know you can't sleep on your back or side, but the back of your head obviously is healing from FUT extraction, so I was thinking about sleeping in my recliner with a neck pillow for the first 3-7 nights. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good post surgery travel pillow? I was looking at this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member makehairgreatagain Posted August 22, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 22, 2020 I think that's a great choice. I received a hospital grade one which was honestly fine as well. You just need something to protect your head/grafts when you move to get comfortable when trying to sleep. You'll be pretty tired from the surgery, medications etc so feel confident in knowing that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member makehairgreatagain Posted August 22, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 22, 2020 You're welcome. You'll have the advantage with the recliner also to keep from rolling around. Hope your surgery goes great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member pkipling Posted August 22, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 22, 2020 Check with your surgeon as well if you want their feedback and input. They often have tried and true products that they either give patients themselves or can recommend to you. 1 I am a patient advocate for Dr. Parsa Mohebi in Los Angeles, CA.
