Your surgeon will give you information about what to expect after your surgery. Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions. Pushing yourself too fast after surgery will only cause setbacks in your recovery. Be prepared to spend some time resting. Discomfort should decrease a little each day. Increases in energy and activity are signs that recovery is going well.

Keep in mind, the amount of time it takes to return to normal activities is different for every patient. Recovery time is often faster for patients who are young and in good physical condition. Maintaining a healthy attitude, a well-balanced diet, and getting plenty of rest can also shorten recovery time. Recovery is much slower for people who smoke and are overweight or out of shape.

Some people experience temporary bouts of moodiness or emotional let down after surgery. Do not fear that this is a setback or will lengthen your recovery time. Emotional changes are normal and may be due to the body working hard to heal itself. They may also be due to unrealistic expectations about how long it takes to feel "normal" again. Keeping a positive attitude is important during this time. Focus on making small improvements each day with an eye toward the continued progress you will make in the future.
