Breast reduction recovery

Based on your job description, I would plan on 4 to 6 weeks off unless you're able to return to modified (less active) duty. Make sure you follow up closely with your surgeon and follow his or her recommendations based on your healing. In most cases, a patient's body “tells them” when they're ready to become active again. Good luck.

Time off for Breast Reduction surgery

In general, I would plan for 7-10 days off from Breast Reduction surgery for a desk job, and for the more physical jobs such as you described, 3-4 weeks.
