What it involves
Post-surgery rehabilitation is a programme of exercise and guided activity that helps you recover movement, strength and everyday function after an operation. A physiotherapist works with your surgeon's instructions, building the programme in stages as healing allows.
Who it is for
It is for people recovering from operations such as joint replacement, fracture repair or ligament surgery. The World Health Organization describes rehabilitation as helping people to function as well as possible in their daily lives, and notes that many people can benefit from it.
How long it usually takes
Programmes run over weeks to months, with sessions that become less frequent as you progress. Your surgeon and physiotherapist can estimate this for your operation.
What to expect
The physiotherapist reviews your operation notes, assesses movement, swelling and strength and sets goals with you. You practise exercises in the clinic and at home. Walking aids and advice on daily activities may be part of the plan.
Aftercare
Follow the restrictions your surgeon gives and do not rush ahead of the plan. Keep up the home exercises. Tell your team if you have increasing pain, swelling, redness around the wound or a fever.
When to seek it
Ask your surgeon or doctor about rehabilitation before or soon after your operation, so the plan can start at the right time.
What affects the cost
Cost depends on the number and length of sessions, home visits, equipment and whether the rehabilitation is arranged through the hospital or a clinic. HealthNaro shows a price only where a clinic has supplied a figure with a source and date.
