Ask-a-Doc : When Can I Return to Playing Sports After My Surgery?
Discover the timeline for returning to sports post-surgery from Dr. Derek Snook at JIS Orthopedics in New Albany and St. Clairsville, Ohio.
Hello, I’m Dr. Michael Morris.
Most of our patients are now able to go home on the same day. More than 50% of our patients go home the same day.
However, not everybody is a candidate for outpatient joint replacement. Those folks who are required to spend the night, either due to underlying medical comorbidities or insurance-based issues, typically will spend one night in the hospital and then go home the next day.
