You may want: To give yourself a day or two to recover. Sometimes the worst day or days in the following day after the surgery, when all the inflammation and swelling kick in. Better to be prepared with time off if possible rather than have to call out sick. You also may be on pain medications that are sedating and could compromise your ability to work!
