Down time after surgery for a deviated septum?

April 8, 2016
Asked By:kmiskimon in Dundalk, MD

I am a 59 year old woman contemplating surgery for my deviated septum. My question is in regard to down time. I work a 12 hour shift in a fairly dusty warehouse. I do heavy lifting occasionally up to 30 lbs throughout my shift. We have no light duty work. Can you give me a rough estimate of the time I should take off of work?
