Swelling after a mastectomy with reconstruction can last from a few weeks to several months, depending on individual factors such as the extent of surgery, type of reconstruction, and the body’s healing response. Initial swelling is most pronounced in the first few weeks post-surgery but typically begins to subside within 4 to 6 weeks. However, it can take up to a year for swelling to completely resolve in some cases. It's important for patients to follow their surgeon's post-operative care instructions to manage swelling effectively.

The legislative or congressional approach set a republican goal to maintain their power and they saw a purpose in the using of the Southern Black vote.

I'm not sure if there was ever an "official" reconstruction period. Generally, "Reconstruction" is applied to federal government policies applied to defeated Southern states as early as 1863.
