Hello and thank you for asking

I have been carefully through your question.
Normally the polyp doesn’t interfere in your stool movement in the colon .
If the polyp can be removed with colonoscopy you don’t need time to recovery

If removed with surgery, the recovery time it’s about 7-10 days or less
