  • Duodenal perforation?

    It depends on if they did the operation through small incisions or big incisions. If it was small incisions, you will be able to get back to work doing at least some light duty. If it was for a big incision you should not do any work for several weeks. If it’s small incisions, then slowly start doing activities before getting into doing really aggressive farm work.
