The timing for when you can shower after surgery varies depending on the type of procedure you had and your surgeon's specific instructions. Generally, patients are advised to wait 24 to 48 hours post-surgery, but some may need to wait longer, especially if they have stitches or drainage tubes. Always follow your surgeon's guidance and ask for specific care instructions during your post-operative follow-up.
