What Is The Recovery Period Post Appendectomy?
Hi, i just had my surgery in appendectomy last june 27. i would like to ask whether i am allowed already to jog now. i used to jog before and now it feels unhealthy not doing any physical activities after the surgery. or can you suggest what activities or exercises i can do despite the operation. i would be glad if you can revert on this. thank you!

Hello,
How many days back you undergone surgery? You have to take rest for two to three weeks in post lap surgery. 2-3 months in laparotomy with appendectomy. Avoid heavy weight lifting, vigorous coughing and sneezing.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
