You, have to start walking immediately to prevent blood clots and lung collapse called atelectasis. Discuss with the Surgeon when you start exercising.
Hello, excellent question, but it really depends on the actual procedure and the type of incision(s) used.

Your surgeon will tell you after the surgery.
