thanks for writing
i understand your concern

i think there is nothing to worry about ,however it is advisable to wait for at least 4 weeks and avoid intercourse before this period
avoid lifting heavy objects and strenuous activities for 6 weeks.

also some amount of discomfort will remain which will subside slowly follow-up for 3 to 4 weeks after surgery is recommended

please let me know if this was helpful , also feel free to ask for any further queries.
