Understanding the Condition

Why Post-Surgery Physiotherapy Matters

After any significant surgery — whether orthopaedic, cardiac, or abdominal — the body requires structured rehabilitation to regain full strength, mobility, and function. Without proper physiotherapy, patients commonly experience prolonged weakness, stiffness, scar tissue formation, and an increased risk of complications. Post-surgical physiotherapy follows evidence-based protocols specifically designed for each surgery type, ensuring that recovery is both safe and as rapid as possible.

Symptoms

Common Signs You Need Treatment

  • Limited range of motion and joint stiffness after orthopaedic surgery
  • Weakness and muscle wasting (atrophy) due to immobilisation or disuse
  • Pain and swelling at the surgical site during the early recovery phase
  • Difficulty with normal daily activities: walking, climbing stairs, dressing
  • Fear of movement or re-injury following surgery
  • Breathlessness or reduced functional capacity after cardiac or chest surgery

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

When should post-surgical physiotherapy begin?+
Most post-surgical physiotherapy begins within 24–72 hours of surgery for orthopaedic procedures. The earlier rehabilitation begins, the better the outcomes. Your surgeon and physiotherapist will coordinate the optimal start time for your specific procedure.
How long does post-surgical rehabilitation take?+
Duration depends on the surgery type. Total knee replacement rehabilitation typically takes 3–6 months. Hip replacement recovery is often 8–12 weeks. Complex spinal or cardiac surgery may require longer programmes. We provide a clear, personalised roadmap from your first session.
Is physiotherapy after surgery painful?+
Some mild discomfort during early exercises is normal and expected. We always work carefully within your pain tolerance and adjust the programme based on your feedback and recovery stage. Pain should never be sharp, excessive, or last more than 24 hours after a session.
Can I do post-surgical physiotherapy at home?+
A home exercise programme is an important part of your rehabilitation, but most post-surgical patients also require supervised clinical sessions — particularly in the early stages when technique, safety, and monitoring are critical. We create a combined programme.
Do I need a referral for post-surgical physiotherapy?+
No referral is required at Sparsh. However, we do recommend bringing your surgical discharge summary and any precaution or restriction letters from your surgeon to your first appointment.
