Martial arts after jaw surgery

2018-01-15 18:40:30
I will be having under-bite correction surgery, hopefully this year. I am an avid martial artist and combat sports competitor. My worry is that after the surgery and recovery I might not be able to compete again as I will be unable to take shots to my jaw. I am wondering if this is true or if I will be able to compete again after i've recovered. Thank you.
