Is it okay to take the stairs ten days after a total hysterectomy?

It is too early to try not to take the stairs when it is ten days since the total hysterectomy. It is common to perform total hysterectomy by laparoscopic and open methods, but regardless of the surgical method, the recovery of the vaginal stump, pelvic and pelvic floor functions will take 2-3 months to fully recover after the surgery. During the recovery period, physical labor, sexual intercourse, pelvic bathing, etc. may lead to infection of the wound in the vaginal stump and affect the healing. If you take the stairs ten days after the operation, the process of climbing the stairs may put pressure on the wounds caused during the operation, resulting in bleeding of the wounds, increasing the possibility of infection and affecting the repair of the wounds. Try not to take the stairs ten days after a total hysterectomy to avoid poor postoperative recovery.
