Too Much Too Soon: Why You Should Take It Easy During Surgery Recovery

The Importance of Rest During Recovery

Following a major surgery, you may be anxious to get back on your feet and take on the world as the new and improved you. But moving too fast in the recovery process could be detrimental to your health and improvement. Here are a few reasons why you should take it easy during surgery recovery and avoid taking on too much too soon.

You Could Make Irrational Decisions

Following a major surgical procedure, you could be irrational, groggy, and incoherent for days afterward. It’s best to take plenty of time to rest and fully recover before returning to work or major responsibilities. Even working from your recovery bed is strongly discouraged. You should only attempt to make important decisions after the recommended recovery period advised by your surgeon.

You Could Hurt Yourself or Tear Your Incision

One of the biggest motivators for shortening your recovery time is for fear of getting out of shape. However, pushing yourself too fast too soon could mean you seriously hurt yourself or tear your incision. A recovering body needs plenty of sleep to allow the body time to repair itself. This rest combined with a nutritious diet and a positive outlook will ensure you stay on the right path of recovery. One wrong step could revert the recovery process, extending your timeline and setting you back a few days.

You Could Prolong Your Recovery Time

Along the same lines, when you attempt too much too soon, you risk extending your recovery time. While each person recovers in a time period that’s unique to them, taking the wrong first steps following your surgery could prolong the healing process. This means more time spent away from friends, loved ones, and family, as well as work and responsibilities. And more time preventing you from living your best life as the new and improved you.

All of this time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life could lead to some serious side effects, including anxiety, depression, and bad habits. It’s so easy to fall into a negative mindset when your recovery does not proceed as planned, which is why it’s important to take every step toward ensuring a healthy, proper recovery.
