How long it takes to do housework after breast surgery is related to the benign and malignant nature of the disease, and the size of the surgery. Benign breast fibroadenoma surgery takes 1 to 2 weeks, while mastectomy for breast cancer takes 2 to 3 months. In the case of benign breast fibroadenoma surgery, because it is a common physiological surgery as well as the surgery is small and well controlled, you can do housework in 1~2 weeks. If it is a mastectomy for breast cancer, it will take a little longer. Depending on the patient’s condition, for early stage or stage 0, 1 or 2 breast cancer, if the patient recovers well from the surgery, the incision heals and there is no sign of metastasis or recurrence, he or she can basically do household chores after 2 to 3 months. In addition, it is necessary to have regular checkups and physical examinations after surgery to prevent recurrence or metastasis of the disease, and to observe whether it is possible to do housework according to the recovery after surgery.
