I just had a transplant procedure done just over a week ago. I’m a pilot who wears a helmet to fly with. How long should I go before wearing my helmet again?
I don’t think you should have any issues with wearing a pilot’s helmet after one week. The grafts shouldn’t be an issue by this point, but the donor scar might be uncomfortable if there is a lot of pressure on your donor area from the helmet.
It really can depend on how large the surgical procedure is, so please talk with your surgeon. I would think your surgeon should be more accessible than me here on the Internet.
