Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity the first few days after surgery, but this is standard protocol. In most cases, patients can resume normal activities from the next day. However, it’s a good practice for a patient to take a few days off from work so as not to put any unnecessary strain on the surgical area and cause discomfort for themselves. And of course, if there are any health complications, they should contact their doctor immediately to avoid wasting time or worsening their condition.
