No matter how big or small your surgery may be, it’s important to be aware of certain details beforehand. You may require surgery due to a medical condition or emergency, or perhaps you’ve decided to have an elective surgery (a surgery that is scheduled and does not involve a medical emergency). Either way it’s important to ask your doctor questions about what you can expect after surgery, including your options for managing pain.
Below you’ll find information on commonly performed procedures, including details on the surgery, as well as what you can expect as you recover in the hospital and at home.
