Immediate Post-Surgery Period
First Few Days: Rest and avoid strenuous activities. Pain and swelling are common. It’s important to follow your surgeon’s instructions carefully during this period.
Pain Management: Follow your surgeon’s instructions for pain relief and wound care. Medications will be prescribed to manage pain and prevent infection.
Weeks 2-4
Activity Restrictions: Gradually resume light activities, but avoid heavy lifting and vigorous exercise. It’s essential to allow your body to heal properly.
Follow-Up Appointments: Attend follow-up visits to monitor healing progress. Your surgeon will check for any complications and ensure that you are healing as expected.
Long-Term Recovery
6 Weeks and Beyond: Most patients can return to their full exercise routine and normal activities after six weeks. However, it’s important to get clearance from your surgeon before resuming strenuous activities.
