7 days is plenty.
1/2 glass of Water with 1 tsp of salt mixed together is good for the 1st 2 or 3 days. You should rinse 3 to 4 times per day.
After you get good healing of your tissue .in other explanation, you need to keep the surgery site clean and rinse gently for 5 -7 days after Second day of the surgery not in day after the surgery..hope that clear your confusion and give you a good answer .
