Check with surgeon: Most people are allowed to resume activities as tolerated in a week after an uneventful laparoscopic appendectomy. However, you should always check with your surgeon to avoid complication such as a potential port site hernia if you exercise prematurely.

Light activities: Light activity and light exercises may be alright after about 2 weeks following laparoscopic surgery, if it is alright with your surgeon. Be sure to check with your surgeon first before strenuous exercises.
