Specializes in General Surgery

A few weeks: In most cases of laparoscopic surgery It will hurt a few days after surgery and make you tired for 7-10 days. It will take about 4 WEEKS for COMPLETE healing. During that period, you should not be lifting > 20lbs. or pushing, pulling or anything strenuous.
