Is 3 days too soon to return to work after Breast Reduction? (Desk job)

Asked By:erhea1 in Tennessee, IL

I'm having breast reduction surgery in 2 weeks. I work at a desk, with minimal movement. My surgery is scheduled for a Friday afternoon and I would ideally like be back at work on Tuesday. I would only have to work 3 days before having a week and half off for the holiday. Is this realistic? I don't want to put myself at risk for complications.
