Essential Tips for a Healthy Heart After Surgery
Being concerned about your health as a patient is normal, especially after heart surgery. What lies ahead will help ease your worries and restore your heart health after your surgery.
Staying Active
One of the great benefits of heart surgery is physically being able to do more than you could before. Two of the most common exercise questions following heart surgery are when to start and what to do.
When should I start?
As you are settled back home, gradual exercise is essential in recovery. You might have to build up slowly and pace yourself, to begin with, and it is normal to feel tired in the first few weeks. Try to balance any activity with enough rest and sleep.
