What is the normal recovery period after surgery to insert the sling for bladder incontinence? i'm 68 years old and in fairly good health.

Sling: Incision should be healed within 2 weeks. Activity should be discussed with your surgeon.

1-2 weeks : Should be sufficient if you are only having a sling.
