Give it a couple day: Probably want to wait a day or two, but it depends on what you had done. Remember that any kind of strenuous activity in the first couple of days can disrupt the healing process. In all, depends on the surgery and how crazy you want to get.

Depends: Oral surgery can be minimally invasive or significantly invasive. Recovery may be short or prolonged. Wounds can be open or closed. As you can see this is not a straight forward question and requires greater knowledge about the persons treatment and prior medical health. The best bet is to ask your treating doctor for guidance.

It depends: On what type of surgery one would have. It is best to discuss this with your treating doctor.

Ask surgeon: Ask your surgeon. Too many variables to answer here. Also depends if you are talking about oral sex vs non oral sex.
