Breast Cancer Surgery Recovery Exercises | 4–8 Weeks | Strength & Shoulder Rehab by Dr Dhwani Jain

Breast cancer surgery ke 4–8 weeks baad kaunsi exercises karni chahiye? Agar aap breast cancer surgery ke baad gentle movements start kar chuke hain aur ab gradually strength, shoulder mobility aur upper-body function improve karna chahte hain, this video is for you. This is Part 2 of our Breast Cancer Recovery & Rehabilitation Exercise Series. In Part 1, we covered gentle exercises for the early recovery phase. In this video, we move towards moderate strengthening exercises that may help you gradually return to your normal activities and exercise routine — after you have been cleared by your surgeon or healthcare team. In this video, we cover: ✅ Resistance band rows ✅ Wall/counter push-ups ✅ Chest press ✅ Shoulder extension with resistance band ✅ Triceps strengthening ✅ How to choose your starting resistance ✅ How to gradually progress your exercises ✅ Warning signs to watch for during exercise The goal at this stage is not to lift heavy weights or rush your recovery. Instead, we gradually work on strength, shoulder control, posture, mobility and confidence with movement. ⚠️ Important Everyone’s breast cancer recovery is different. Your exercise progression may depend on your type of surgery, reconstruction, lymph node surgery, drains, wound healing, radiation, chemotherapy and your overall health. Please get clearance from your surgeon/doctor or oncology physiotherapist before starting these exercises. If you experience increasing pain, swelling, unusual heaviness, significant pulling around the surgical area, wound concerns or any other unusual symptoms, stop exercising and contact your healthcare team. This video is for general educational purposes and does not replace individualized medical or physiotherapy advice. If you haven’t watched Part 1 — 0–3 Weeks Gentle Exercises, watch that first if you’re still in the early stages of recovery. 👉 Subscribe for more science-backed breast cancer rehabilitation, physiotherapy, lymphedema and women’s health content.
