It depends on the surgery done. How many days of immobilisation has been suggested? To start with physiotherapy we can start it from the next day of operation. If u have lower level nerve injury then it may take up to min 3 weeks to get it back. There are chances of full recovery if u start treatment early. And alwz better visit come professional.
