After a fusion, maybe,but after a discectomy, they have you walking with a frame within a day or two.It was painful, but I was told it was necessary to promote healing.Within 2 weeks I was getting around OK.
About 2 weeks. If they stay in much longer, the skin heals over them, and removal can be uncomfortable.
Some people say he isn't coming back because his ankle surgery wont allow him to last, but he got the surgery so he CAN stay in the NFL 1 more season. 90% chance he comes back to minnesota to finish his contract, but who knows...we wont find out until 3 weeks into the preseason...LOL
Pancreatectomy is major surgery. Therefore, extended hospitalization is usually required with an average hospital stay of two to three weeks.
Answer Hi, I had a tummy tuck about two years ago and it was day surgery, so I was released about 2 hours after the surgery. I had consulted with many surgeons about length of stay and it was pretty much borderline (a recovery period for about 2 to 4 HOURS) and then released. I do know that if your surgery is performed at a hospital they may require/allow you to stay for 2 TO 4 days. I am a plastic surgeon in Utah (Dr. York Yates). With improved technique and technology, this is almost always an oupatient procedure today. My patients stay as long as they need/ feel like it but usually this is just 15-45 minutes. I generally do not use general anesthesia even for a full abdominoplasty which helps.
Just had eye surgery and used Atropine for about 6 weeks. Dr. said the effects of the Atropine will last 1-2 weeks after the last drop was administered.
The stiches are covered by tape and are usually of the disolvable type.So if after a couple of weeks when the wound has healed and they have not disolved see your doctor to have them removed.
Dilotid is a narcotic pain killer. My mother was on it after a surgery, and it took her about 2 days to get back to normal.
Patients undergoing surgical pacemaker implantation usually stay in the hospital overnight.
It depends on what type of surgery they are going to use to remove the appendix. If they do it via laproscopic surgery, her recovery time will be much quicker than actually having to cut her open and remove it. Recovery time for a laproscopic surgery is between 2-3 weeks, it also depends on how your mother comes out of surgery (i.e. any infections, complications). She should not be in the hospital for more than 2-3 days as long as the surgery goes well. For more information go to : http://www.doctor-dubai.com/dr_info_display.asp?dr_id=1176 Good luck.

Recovery from scoliosis surgery typically takes about 6 to 12 months, but initial healing often occurs within the first few weeks. Patients may stay in the hospital for 3 to 7 days post-surgery, followed by several weeks of limited activity. Full recovery can vary based on individual factors such as age, overall health, and the extent of the surgery. Physical therapy is commonly recommended to aid in rehabilitation and improve mobility.
Recovering from carpal tunnel surgery isn�t easy. After all, you had the surgery because you use your hands a lot. The first step to post-surgery success is to have someone drive you home. Once you�re home, stay away from the computer for at least 4 weeks. If you need to use the computer, have someone else use the mouse and do the typing � you can dictate. Other important tips include to keep your hand elevated as much as possible and to move your fingers gently every day.
