After I have a gall blader surgery,how long do I have to stay home from work?

uming you have no significant co-morbidities(major health problems) and the procedure is done laparoscopically without any complications, you should be able to return to work in 3-7 days. Often patients will report only mild abdominal tenderness, usually at incision sites, and diarrhea/loose stools lasting for about 1 month. If you do have any other health problems, especially those that interfere with healing and/or proper blood clotting or if you are obese, you should expect a longer recovery.
