Hi there!

Well, without knowing the clinical details such as the primary condition for which the surgery was done, its severity, type of surgery, presence of other associated conditions etc; it would be difficult to answer your questions. I would suggest discussing this with your treating doctor.
Hope this is helpful.

Take care!
