Recovery time is the period following your hospitalization.
For those still in employment, it is the time required before being able to resume business activities, for others it is the time before resuming daily activities with the same energy as before the intervention .

The time and place of convalescence depends on the type of action you are going to, its aftermath and the quality of your personal environment.

The recovery should be considered at the programming of your presentation with your surgeon. Feel free to talk with him.
