INFORMATION


After the Operation

Activity

When you return home you will naturally feel tired for a few days. You should get up each day and take some exercise. Increase your activity every day until you return to your normal routine.

Driving

You should let your insurance company know you are having an operation, and they will advise you when you can start driving again.

Work

You can return to work as soon as you feel that you are ready. If you do heavy work, a gradual return to your normal level of work is advised.

Follow-up appointment

An appointment will be arranged approximately two weeks after your surgery.
