It depends on the surgery, how many structures are being operated on, and how involved is the surgical technique.
Your recovery time will depend of the exact type of surgery that is being done. This is something your doctor will discuss with you during your consultation.
It depends on what the surgery was. It takes 4 to 6 weeks for bones to heal
Only your surgeon should be answering this question.
That would entirely depend on what surgery it is. I would recommend discussing this in detail with your doctor.
