We will review your full instructions for post-care during your consultation, as our number one goal is to help you heal quickly and minimize your downtime.
In general, you can expect to be able to swim within three weeks after your surgery, or after your wounds are totally healed. Regarding exercise, you will be able to walk immediately after your release, but you should wait about two weeks before restarting any cardio or lower-body exercises. Pushing or pulling exercises, including lifting anything greater than 10 pounds, should be avoided for six weeks after surgery.
