Shortly: You will have to ask your surgeon for their advice but you should be able to go back to some work up as soon as you feel up to it.

Months: It actually depends on the type of bunion surgery that you are having. Just a simple bunionectomy may allow you to return to some of these activities in a month. However, most likely you will be several months from resuming such a rigorous schedule.
