On The Road To Recovery

Post Operation

Guidance for a safe, comfortable recovery in the days and weeks following your surgery.

Immediately After Surgery

  • You will be monitored in recovery before being cleared to go home or to your room.
  • Some grogginess, soreness, and swelling near the incision is expected.
  • Arrange for a responsible adult to drive you home and stay with you the first night.

Wound Care

  • Keep the incision clean and dry as instructed by our team.
  • Watch for increased redness, warmth, or drainage at the site.
  • Attend your scheduled follow-up for suture or staple removal.

Activity & Movement

  • Gradually increase activity as guided, avoiding heavy lifting or twisting.
  • Short, frequent walks help circulation and support early recovery.
  • Begin physical therapy only when cleared by Dr. Khaleel.

When To Call Us

  • Fever, chills, or a rapidly worsening incision.
  • Sudden or severe pain not controlled by prescribed medication.
  • New numbness, weakness, or loss of bladder or bowel control.
