Can i exercise bike 2 days after evlt?

I would be careful: What did your surgeon say to you? I assume this was for treatment of veins in your legs. Best to check with your surgeon. 2 days seems a bit soon.

EVLT: You can exercises within minutes after EVLT. I actually recommend my patients to do that immediately after they drive home following EVLT. This is very healthy and reduces likelihood of developing DVT.

Not recommended: I advise patients to avoid strenuous exercise for 1 week. You can use the bike gently but not to excess. Avoid "bouncy " exercises like running or tennis.
