Sometimes, depending on what happened during the Surgery and your comobidities.

No. Typically these are performed as outpatient surgeries.
If you have a scheduled procedure, that can be done as an outpatient. If you have to come into the hospital via the ER and do not get to go home before surgery, you will likely spend at least one night in the hospital after your surgery.
