A member asked:
Will i need time off work after a bone marrow biopsy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: The site of biopsy will be sore for a day or two, but you should be able to return to work the day after. More important for your ability to work may be the reason for which you need bone marrow biopsy.
