My Husband Had Mohs Surgery on His Eyebrow 2 Days Ago and Lifted Something That Was 40 Lbs. Will This Cause Him Danger?

Thank you for your question. It is recommended after surgery to not lift heavy items and to limit strenuous exercise at least until sutures are removed (1-2 weeks), and often times beyond that until initial wound healing is completed, approximately 6-8 weeks. Any straining that could increase blood flow and pressure to the head, is discouraged especially in the initial days or weeks post-operatively. I hope this helps.

As you can see there is a difference in opinion in terms of restrictions following Mohs surgery so it is best to check with your Mohs surgeon. For my patients, I advised them to avoid activity for one week if the site of surgery is on the face. Activity including lifting heavy boxes can pop stitches but also lead to poorer wound healing. In the area where I practice, I have a large population of folks who work in New York, where appearances matter and avoiding activity in my opinion for the week after surgery helps give a better cosmetic outcome. 

Your surgeon is the best person to guide you in your healing.  I would recommend that your husband take care of himself and limit activity for at least a week post op.  If you have any excess bleeding or swelling, see your surgeon as soon as possible.
