Open Gallbladder Surgery Recovery Period

2022-04-08 15:51:50
How long it takes to fully recover after an open Gallbladder Surgery? I had my open surgery 3 month ago, but still I feel weak, very low on energy. Very low on strength. Though I do some exercises, not even going outside for job but still I feel less active. Is it normal?

First change your thinking about reference between open and laparoscopic. Both of them have not much defence in recovery. Your weakness is not because of open surgery but it is because of your thinking about open procedure. Do your routine as you were doing before operation then you will feel strong as normal.
