Sports and Working Out



Recommended Posts

Hi I'm new to this but I've always had an active life playing softball basketball and soccer on adult leagues but I was wondering how long should I wait after my surgery to get back to doing that? Thanks!!

Ask your doctor for the go ahead on full exercise. My surgery was picture perfect, no complications whatsoever and my doctor gave me clearance for all activity at four weeks .

I am told, barring complications; 4 weeks as well. But every doc is different, so ask him/her.

Yea I think every doc is different. My doctor told m to hit the gym the day I was discharged. Although I chose to walk instead he said there was "nothig I could do to hurt what he did"...stil find that hard to believe lol
