Expect soreness: For 7-10 days. Your surgeon should supply medications to help and keep your post surgical morbidity at a minimum. Good luck.

Varies: Recover time will vary depending on many factors including age, general health of the patient, infection control, blood sugar control, the exact type of procedure, and post-operative and follow up care. Discuss it with your surgeon and get their opinion as to what they feel is a reasonable recovery time for you.
