The length of time for therapy after any surgery varies. Many require 6 months of therapy, some less, dome more.
This depends on the type of surgery you are having & will be directed by your surgeon.

It depends on the problem. Sometimes it’s not needed at all. Sometimes, months of therapy are needed.
It depends on the type of procedure, the skill of your surgeon, and quality of your tissues. Good luck.
Depends on the actual procedure. All finger surgery is not the same
I do not specialize in hand therapy, but I’m assuming 8 weeks-12 weeks.
Good luck!
Depends on the specific surgery. 2-6 weeks
